Partnering with The Hong Kong Children's Choir, Hong Kong Youth Choir, and Die Konzertisten, CUHK will be hosting a conference on Contemporary Cantonese Music with a culminating concert showcasing Cantonese choral works in late Spring 2023. The concert will feature six original works from the call for scores. The open category welcomes submissions from composers of all ages and nationalities, and the student category encourages local secondary school students to showcase their creativity.

We are excited to announce that LENK Quartet will be Artists-in-Residence for our MA in Music Programme in AY2022/23.  There will be three concerts in the academic year with the mission to build close ties and foster exchanges between MA’s artists-in-residence, CUHK staff and students, and indeed all other friends in the audience.  LENK quartet is a violin-cello-clarinet-piano quartet composed of active Hong Kong-born, Hong Kong-raised and Hong Kong-based classical musicians formed in 2021. Under the concert invitation from HKU MUSE, the group is initiated by veteran pianist Nancy Loo and joined forces by young violinist Kitty Cheung, cellist Eric Yip and clarinettist Linus Fung. The name LENK is the combination of first letters of the English names Linus, Eric, Nancy and Kitty. The quartet is committed to giving top quality live performances to the audience with its engaging and multicoloured playing. Photo credit: Kurt Chan
