Founded by visionary leader T.S. Lo, with Ryohei Kanemitsu (“YO”) as Music Director, WOOONTA re-defines world music by blending the melancholic resonance of the erhu with the evocative tones of the sitar, pushing the boundaries of world music into uncharted realms.

During this talk, members of WOOONTA will engage in a dialogue with Professor Ip Kim-ho, reflecting on their creative process and international experiences. Together, they will explore how the band innovates, transcends the boundaries between traditional and modern music, and pioneers cross-genre exchanges that continue to captivate audiences worldwide. Join us for this special preview of WOOONTA’s unique spirit ahead of the duo’s enchanting performances during World Music Weekend, alongside other groups from South Korea and Mainland China!

Prof Ip Kim-ho

Professor Ip is currently the Head of the Wong Bing Lai Music and Performing Arts Unit at Lingnan University. His PhD studies at the University of Edinburgh focused on music and intercultural studies. He has served as a Research Fellow at the International Research Centre, Interweaving Performance Culture, at the Freie Universität Berlin, Germany.
