Mercury Soul, SF Opera, and the Asian Art Museum came together for a celebration inspired by The Monkey King. 

The evening unfolded with waves of opera arias, DJ sets, and lush classical music. DJ sets were interspersed with works by Huang Ruo—composer of The Monkey King—alongside music from Verdi, de Falla, prodigy Yangfan Xu and more. The Asian Art Museum’s gorgeous architecture became a living work of art through stunning immersive visual projections in this one-night-only journey through centuries of artistic heritage.
