Artistic Director Cathie Boyd aims to blast open the frontiers of musical performance, and present it as a more intoxicating experience illuminated by visual and theatrical interpretation.
Using sculptural sets by internationally-renowned designer Jason Ong, costumes by Singapore fashion designer BAYLENE and visuals created by Swiss digital artist Jasch, she has succeeded brilliantly. Optical Identity immerses its audience in a sensory world of escape from the moment the T’ang Quartet emerge from the dark and, dressed in striking white costumes, begin their intense, high energy performance, playing their instruments off score with passion and tremendous skill, in a series of choregraphed movements.
