Aprašymas
After 50 momentous years, little is remembered of the chaos the Hong Kong Philharmonic faced in its early days as a professional outfit. John Duffus arrived in Hong Kong in 1979 as its fifth general manager in as many years.
In this entertaining memoir he highlights those problems and illustrates how, with typical Scottish grit and determination, he helped get the orchestra on the road as an international ensemble.
John's subsequent concerts as a Hong Kong impresario with superstars Luciano Pavarotti, José Carreras, Plácido Domingo, Kiri Te Kanawa, Yo-Yo Ma and many others - including pop icons Dionne Warwick and Olivia Newton-John - make for fascinating and occasionally shocking stories, as do the almost unbelievable backstage dramas he reveals while managing Andrew Lloyd Webber's Asian companies and bringing CATS and Phantom of the Opera to Hong Kong. Most of the details in this book have never before been published.
