01 / THE PROJECT

About the project

Mezzo-soprano Wu Ai and Les Musiciens du Lys meet at KotorArt in a programme connecting Chinese and French artists through vocal and chamber music. The series also includes a concert at Novi Sad’s Eđšeg Cultural Station.

Scored for mezzo-soprano, flute and piano, this concert brought Chinese and French repertoire into dialogue at Kotor’s Church of the Holy Spirit. Wu Ai and French chamber musicians explored the meeting of vocal line and instrumental colour.
