Concert FAQ


Our annual outdoor mega-event, Swire Symphony Under The Stars, returns to the Central Harbourfront! Under the baton of our Principal Guest Conductor, Yu Long, the HK Phil will embark with you on an extraordinary trip to Italy through some spectacular Italian music works. Along with our audience’s favourite – the spellbinding Rhapsody on a Theme of Paganini by Rachmaninov, featuring Serena Wang on the piano. Five HK Phil musicians will perform as soloists – our Concertmaster Jing Wang (Vivaldi’s The Four Seasons: Summer), and the four members of our Trombone section – Jarod Vermette, Christian Goldsmith, Kevin Thompson and Aaron Albert (Meredith Willson’s “Seventy-Six Trombones”). You will be dazzled in this captivating journey, which will be summed up with stunning fireworks – the perfect backdrop for selfies!
