Beijing to Belfast is part of the British Council’s Connections through Culture programme and aims to highlight cross-cultural exchange between Hard Rain and Beijing Modern Music Festival. Following our performance at BMMF, we have furthered our collaboration in 2026, through new works composed for Hard Rain SoloistEnsemble by eminent Chinese composers. These works are presented here in a specially curated concert and we are delighted to host special guests Professor Xiaogang Ye (President of the Chinese Musicians’ Association and Dean of the School of Music, The Chinese University of Hong Kong, Shenzhen), Guo Haiou (Executive Director of the Beijing Modern Music Festival and Director of the Advanced Institute of Music Culture, Central Conservatory of Music) and Composer Ni Chenkang (Doctor of Composition, Shanghai Conservatory of Music).
