“东方经典 声动新山” 《四大名著》 影视金曲音乐会—— 庄杰师生与富力公主湾歌剧院管乐团(青年团)联袂呈现 Eastern Epics in Concert Songs from China’s Four Great Classical Novels | Presented by Zhuang Jie & Young Artists with R&F Princess Cove Opera House Youth Symphonic Band

Following the resounding success of “Zhuang Jie: Solo Recital of Chinese and Foreign Classic Songs” on January 9, 2026, renowned Singaporean tenor Zhuang Jie returns to the Johor Bahru stage for a powerful second chapter.

If the debut concert was a dialogue between East and West, this second production is a profound echo of Eastern civilization.

From Italian arias to the epic themes of Chinese classical literature, Zhuang Jie has long reflected on one essential question:

How can Chinese cultural heritage shine with renewed vitality on the global stage?

This time, he turns to the heart of Chinese literary tradition 

—China’s Four Great Classical Novels —

reimagining timeless classics through symphonic sound, and offering overseas audiences a grand spiritual celebration rooted in Eastern identity.

A millennium-spanning epic of the East will soon resound at the Permaisuri Zarith Sofiah Opera House, Johor Bahru.

_____________

China’s Four Great Classical Novels are not merely literary masterpieces;

they are the spiritual roots of Chinese cultural identity.

From the heroic ambition of Romance of the Three Kingdoms,

to the poetic depth of Dream of the Red Chamber;

from the fantastical imagination of Journey to the West,

to the brotherhood and valor of Water Margin…

On this extraordinary evening, all these literature will transforms into melody, and history becomes resonance.

The beloved cinematic theme songs drawn from these classics

will be reborn through a powerful collaboration between

Zhuang Jie and his protégés and the R&F Princess Cove Opera House Youth Symphonic Wind Orchestra.

A celebration of cultural memory, a celebration of shared heritage, and a tribute to the enduring spirit of Eastern civilisation is ready to unfold in Johor Bahru…

《四大名著》不仅是文学巨著，更是华人文化精神的根脉所在。

《三国演义》的豪情壮志

《红楼梦》的儿女情长

《西游记》的浪漫奇幻

《水浒传》的英雄气概

这一晚，文学将化为旋律，历史将化为回响。

熟悉的影视金曲，将在庄杰师生与富力公主湾歌剧院青少年管乐团的交织中，重焕时代光彩

这不仅是一场音乐会，更是一场关于文化记忆与精神归属的盛典。。。
