The Foundation would like to thank all players who participated in the Amateur Chamber Music Showcase on 6 January 2013, held at the Asia Society Hong Kong Center in conjunction with Premiere Performances of Hong Kong as part of the 4th HKICMF. The quality, passion, dedication and professionalism of all players was most inspiring. Seeing young students, professionals, andmusic lovers all share the same stage and support each other’s performances was extremely rewarding, and captures a critical component of what, the Foundation believes, music is really about.
