Protego Maxima concert by Xpose Guitar Ensemble | 4th March 2018 (Sun) | 4pm @ SOTA Concert Hall

Here’s a concert blurb for your reference:

The Xposé Guitar Ensemble is pleased to present <<Protego Maxima>>, a celebration of humanity and human nature that brings together the passions and practices that bind us together!

Be astounded by the grandeur of ‘Tori no Uta’, which expresses the limitless boundaries of the sky. Be bemused by the various whimsical turns of ‘Triptyque’ and ‘Ponte Felice’ that might bring a grin to your face. If passion is your cup of tea, you might be stirred into action and frenzy by our tunes from Studio Ghibli’s ‘Porco Rosso’ and Space Battleship Yamato or the lament of a woman fighting against injustice as a sovereign in our ‘Forbidden City’ selections. Perhaps a touch of magic and the fantastical would draw you in with our tunes from ‘Fantastical Beasts and where to find them’ or your feet might start tap-tap-tapping away to traditional Japanese festival music in ‘Three scenes of Japan’
There’s a piece and a song for everyone in this fiesta of our humanity and our passions. Come join us! Buy a ticket today!

Ticket Prices: $25 Adults, $20 Students (before Tote-board arts grant subsidy for educational institutional purchase; $10 after subsidy; subsidy confirmation pending).

For ticket enquiries and purchase, please contact Michelle (97617910) or Leo (96446778).
