The Macao Orchestra (OM, from the Portuguese acronym), under the auspices of the Cultural Affairs Bureau, will present the concert “Piano Encounter - Meet Alice” on 21 January 2017, at the Macao Tower Auditorium. The concert, under the baton of OM’s Music Director Lü Jia, also features the well-known young pianist Alice Sara Ott, who has a “supermodel” appearance. Tickets for this concert are available through the Macau Ticketing Network.

Born in Munich, in Germany, in 1988, Alice Sara Ott is a Germanic–Japanese pianist, hailed as the most talented young pianist in recent years. With her diverse background, she has a keen sense of music. Her music is unique and explosive, entirely different from the music of traditional musicians in what concerns performance style and repertoire selection. Alice has currently become one of the most influential figures in the world’s music circles, and each of her performances brings unlimited power and surprises to the audience. The British daily, The Times, writes that [her performance gives you] only surprises but no regrets. This concert features Schumann’s Piano Concerto in A minor, offering music fans a musical feast.

Tickets for the concert “Piano Encounter - Meet Alice” are priced at MOP250, MOP200 and MOP150, with various discount packages available. Ticketing Hotline: 2855 5555.
