Cherished brass classics meet reinterpretations of Chinese melodies in this concert, bringing together distinct musical voices in a shared space. The evening opens in bold colour, moves through lyrical writing and atmospheric modern textures, and reveals the brass quintet’s expressive world in a cultural dialogue.

HK Phil × WestK Performing Arts:  Echoes on the Horizon

Tea House Theatre

Fasten your seatbelts for a high-octane musical journey, from Hans Zimmer’s epic Gladiator score to Wagner’s imposing Die Walküre, via the jazzy swing of Artie Shaw’s Clarinet Concerto with Principal Clarinet Andrew Simon. The HK Phil trombone section – Jarod Vermette, Christian Goldsmith, Kevin Thompson, and Aaron Albert – performs Koetsier’s Concertino for Four Trombones, a playful showcase of brass virtuosity. From circus march to operatic fire, this musical thrill ride soars with energy and lands in unforgettable style.
