Starting from May 10, a series of exhibitions, concerts, film screenings and lectures featuring Sino-French cultural exchanges will be staged in Guangzhou, Shenzhen, Jiangmen and Zhuhai successively. These activities form part of the 16th Festival Croisements.
Since its establishment 17 years ago,
the Festival Croisements has been promoting cultural dialogues between China
and France and dedicating high-quality artistic events.
This year the organizer specially
invites two French musicians living in China, saxophonist Clermont Ember and
violinist Guillaume Mocklai as well as one Chinese pianist Xie Yashuangzi to
perform an original trio, presenting a music feast for residents.
As 2022 marks the 400th anniversary of
the birth of the great French playwright Molière, his three representative
works, Le Tartuffe, L'avare, and Le Malade Imaginaire will be staged at the
Guangzhou Opera House in June and July.
A Summer Music Festival performed
jointly by Chinese and French bands is another highlight of this year's events.
This music festival will be held in front of the world cultural heritage
Kaiping Diaolou, and bring electronic, hip-hop, pop, jazz, and new rock created
by fusion with traditional Chinese folk music.
