Join us on the island for the world premiere performances of Huang Ruo’s Angel Island - Oratorio for Voices and Strings.

Take the ferry and meet us at the immigration station for an outdoor performance of the new oratorio, where Volti and Del Sol Quartet brings poems to life in the very space they were created. Composed by Huang Ruo, the 60-minute oratorio for string quartet and chamber choir will weave a story of immigration, discrimination, and confinement - bringing history into the reality of our current lives.

Volti & Del Sol Quartet
