Prosjektbeskrivelse The Moon er et samarbeidsprosjekt mellom norske og kinesiske kunstnere som tar sikte på å bli realisert i Kina og Norge i Prosjektet går ut på en 25 minutters musikalsk performance med fullt live symfoniorkester, to fiolinsolister, og en animasjonsvideo projisert på scene. Bakgrunnshistorien og konseptet vil bli spunnet rundt den kinesiske Mangaen (tegneserie) The Moon, som er skapt av en av de ledende kvinelige tegneserieskaperne i Kina i dag, Lin Ying. Boken vil bli omvandlet til en still image animasjonsfilm, som vil animeres etter Martin Romberg s musikk, inspirert av tegneserien. Dobbeltfiolinkonserten vil bli skrevet spesielt for de to norsk-kinesiske søstrene Sara og Catharina Chen, og er et unikt forsøk fra en norsk komponist å forvandle en asiatisk tegneserie til symfonisk musikk. 2.
