This year's Rayson Huang Lecture will focus on Messiaen's Quartet for the End of Time. Composed and performed 80 years ago in one of Hitler's prisoner-of-war camps, this work liberates music as a theological and creative act. Professor Rebecca Rischin (Ohio University) and Professor Jeremy Begbie (Duke University) know the Quartet intimately as both musicians and scholars in their respective disciplines of music and theology. They will share their perspectives on Messiaen's Quartet in two 30-minute lectures, followed by a time of discussion and questions with Professor Daniel Chua, HKU's Chair Professor of Music.
