Change of Performer
Due to unforeseen circumstances, the guest trumpet player Li Xiaochuan is not able to join this performance. He is now replaced by Addison Yip.
Free Dimension is a modern jazz project spearheaded by the visionary talent of Cy Leo. Renowned as one of the world’s most inventive cross-genre harmonicists, Cy Leo draws inspiration from the concept of parallel universes — where infinite possibilities coexist simultaneously — to curate the captivating project known as ‘Free Dimension’. While ‘Dimension’ is the direct translation of ‘genre’, ‘Free’ represents jazz. In this groundbreaking endeavour, Cy Leo showcases his prowess as both a jazz harmonicist and composer, combining the freedom of jazz with the boundless exploration of musical genres.
The harmonica-centric compositions featured in ‘Free Dimension’ encompass a diverse range of influences, spanning modern jazz, soul, funk, classical, cinematic, and even elements of Cantonese pop music. These captivating pieces took shape during Cy Leo’s two-year residency in the vibrant musical landscape of New York City starting in 2021. This remarkable concert brings together a collective of 13 exceptional musicians, including Grammy Award-nominated artists from the United States, alongside some of Hong Kong’s finest local talents.

– Concert duration is approximately 1 hour 30 minutes without intermission.
– Recommended for ages 6 and above.
– Audience is strongly advised to arrive punctually. Latecomers will only be admitted at a suitable break.
– The presenter reserves the right to change the programme, artists and seating arrangement should unavoidable circumstances make it necessary.
