Musicus Society
Musicus Society was founded in 2010 under the vision of renowned cellist Trey Lee. A registered charity with the Hon. Tung Chee-hwa as Honorary Patron, Musicus Society aims to promote music through cross-cultural collaboration between local and overseas artists. The Society is financially supported by the Arts Development Matching Grants Scheme of the Government of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region and presents three major programs each year:
Musicus Fest provides a meeting point for artists from across the world to collaborate on stage and inspire future generations with performances and side-by-side training. Through its international partnerships, Musicus Fest also serves as a springboard for burgeoning local talents to perform overseas and gain foreign exposure.
Musicus Heritage presents concerts and fringe activities at cherished Hong Kong historical sites, with curated music programs that reflects the specific cultural significance of the surroundings. The concerts also feature the world première of works by young Hong Kong composers, commissioned for and inspired by selected heritage sites.
Musicus Inspires! is an educational program which aims to cultivate students of all social backgrounds. The initiative includes the “Ensemble Training” program for aspiring young talents to learn from great masters in Hong Kong and abroad. Students are also encouraged to explore various aspects of music via “School Visits” and “Behind the Scenes.” In addition, promising young composers and instrumentalists are discovered and encouraged via the annual competitions of “Call for Scores” and “Young Artist Audition.”
