“An Evening with HKCO Principals” offers a full programme of virtuosic concertos highlighting the extraordinary artistry of four illustrious musicians. Chen Yi-wei is renowned for pushing traditional boundaries on the sheng with modern techniques, creating a soundscape that is both ethereal and virtuosic. Ge Yang is celebrated for her delicate tones on the liuqin, and for infusing the instrument with poetic and nuanced lines. Luk Kin Bun blends traditional and experimental approaches to the percussion, while Wong Sum Ho is noted for Cantonese finesse on the gaohu, navigating between delicate lyricism and fervent intensity.

This concert not only highlights the virtuosity of four HKCO principals but also guides audiences through the beauty, exuberance and uniqueness of Chinese music, focusing on different instrumental families (bowed and plucked strings, wind and percussion).
