【燈棚龍鳳起祥氤,萬紫千紅天下春】
80盞年燈高掛,映照80位音樂家與兩獅薈萃,俯瞰著由編鐘、絳州大鼓及32種吹彈拉打樂器砌成的龍騰虎躑之勢。《大龍鳳》旋律以粵音朗讀不同賀年句的音調而譜寫成,當中隱含著不少賀年名曲,儼如張貼著一幅幅有聲有畫的音樂揮春。

Synopsis: “Air of auspiciousness arises from lanterns of dragon and phoenix. Thousand shades of purple and red announce the arrival of Spring to the world”.
80 Chinese New Year lanterns that cast light on 80 musicians and two dancing lions from high above create a stunningly dynamic scene of a soaring dragon with the lineup of bianzhong, Jiangzhou big drum, and 32 types of wind, plucked string, bowed string and percussion instruments. The score of Dragon Phoenix is inspired by the phonemics of the Cantonese dialect in the new year greetings recited, and hidden in it are many famous songs on the Chinese New Year theme. The result is an audio-visual montage of auspicious new year wishes, just like the red couplets one finds everywhere during this festive season.
