Hong Kong is a city known for its energy… and consequently, its noise level. Some people ask me whether being a musician, I am bothered by all the noise. I actually find the busy bustle and the noise endearing… because it shows me that Hong Kong is alive with vigour. I tell them therefore that I would not choose to live anywhere else on earth – because Hong Kong is my home, and it represents a big part of my “wonderful world”.

Living in a busy commercial city like Hong Kong, we often tend to associate the word “wonderful” with direct experiences associated with “commodities” such as a good meal or a nice concert. Food and music are indeed wonderful – and I am not suggesting that they should not be associated with the word. However, I believe that we should go beyond just acknowledging the feeling of a good night out, and expand our horizons to be more aware of more subtle things that form the impression of our “wonderful world”. Everyone’s “wonderful world” is different – in content and in proportion. Throughout Hong Kong Sinfonietta’s 2011/2012 season, I have prepared a programme on a loose theme on things that may make up your “wonderful world” – some may not be “wonderful” at first sight, or others which you may have missed because you had been too busy. Through music and other art forms, we remind you of the bountiful world we live in – with starry skies and shimmering seas; with dance and music; and the abundant opportunities around us… only when we are able to appreciate the world we live in – will we be able to create a “wonderful world” for ourselves and for the generations to come. Hong Kong Sinfonietta is your orchestra! Let us lead you into our colourful world of possibilities and perspectives – a wonderful world which is all encompassing – for everyone!

Hong Kong Sinfonietta is a mid-size symphony orchestra made up of 56 core musicians. Starting life in 1990 as a group formed by local musicians, Yip Wing-sie took over its artistic direction as Music Director since 2002. Recognising the need for an additional orchestra, Hong Kong Sinfonietta became one of the regularly-funded performing arts groups in 1999. 12 years on, the orchestra performs almost 100 times a year and is one of the most prolific providers of classical music in Hong Kong. As venue partner of the Hong Kong City Hall Concert Hall, Hong Kong Sinfonietta performs there most regularly, but also provides music for opera and ballet. Apart from concerts which feature standard classical repertoire, Hong Kong Sinfonietta is known as the orchestra which has the promotion of classical music as its core mission. From artistic programming to the thinking behind the orchestra’s management, we believe that “Audience Development” should not be done in an orthodox way, nor should it involve “lecturing”. We believe that through innovation and interaction, classical music, whether they are new commissioned works or popular classics, can be equally interesting. Always challenging the boundaries and parameters of “acceptance”, Hong Kong Sinfonietta breaks through barriers and grasps the importance of communicating with the audience. Come and make classical music a part of your wonderful world!

He will create a new work for Ravel’s La Valse and work with the orchestra in Know Your Ballet Music. He will also work with members of the orchestra and staff during the year on various projects involving general health and well-being. The Artist Associate Scheme aims to provide a platform for intensive collaboration with an individual artist or group during the course of the season, when new ideas and initiatives are explored to expand beyond the horizon of classical music. First launched in 2006, a diverse range of artists have since participated in the scheme: composer of classical/jazz/pop/Chinese music Ng Cheuk-yin, Grainger Quartet, composer/multi-media artist Samson Young, conductor Jason Lai and pianist Colleen Lee. We are proud that these artists have since continued to become pillar figures in their respective fields. We continue to work with them in different projects and one of the most unexpected results is that James Cuddeford of Grainger Quartet has now become our Concertmaster! ᇼᓒᙴ www.HKSL.org/chi/YuriNg ᏵՅҡΛτᗐณͨ቙྆ᖚ୺ࡼ͢Χई‫ؿ‬༅ࢿ Find out more about our new Artist Associate Yuri Ng on www.HKSL.org/eng/YuriNg

“His style is flamboyant like Kreisler’s, sensitive like Heifetz’s, and he has a typically French clarity when in the heart of polyphonic complexity.” Libération

Winner of:

“The freedom, the presence and the imagination of Laurent Korcia’s playing, only a handful of violinists – living or dead – have it…Korcia has it all: the majestic style, the technique, the charisma, the ideas, the charm.” Le Monde

• Paganini Competition • Jacques Long-Thibaud Competition • Zino Francescatti International Competition

“Korcia lives his passion to the full. His furiously concentrated playing breathes authenticity, spontaneity and a taste for adventure, giving his interpretations an original flavour which comes from the depths of his soul.” The Strad

Apart from performances in the Appreciate, Learn and Relax series on the concert stage, you may find the orchestra performing chamber music during lunch hours in the foyer of Hong Kong City Hall or other unexpected venues, or working with multimedia artists at ArtisTree.
