To observe the cruelties of the world from a childlike perspective, through a heart-piercing cold to reach the warmth at the bottom of the heart, Jimmy Liao has accompanied us for decades through ups and downs in our lives with his poetic style and exquisite works. He remains vigilant and society-judging in comforting and soothing, giving us opportunities to reflect and brings warmth we need. In this performance. In this performance, NSO musicians will compliment the reclusive beauty of The Starry, Starry Night with chamber works by Debussy and Honegger, and to celebrate the long-expected birth of the Turn Left, Turn Right sequel, which took him 20 years in creation, with Poulenc’s music. As said in the preface of Jimmy Liao’s Stories Go Round on the Merry Go Round, “Paint it! Write it! Let the stories go round!” Let’s meet Jimmy not only through his heart-stirring illustration, but also with our ears this time!
