CREATING A MUSICAL BUBBLE BETWEEN THE HONG KONG CITY HALL CONCERT HALL AND THE UNIVERSITY OF MUSIC AND PERFORMING ARTS, VIENNA: The Presentation of the Hong Kong Joy of Music Festival, 2021 It would be impossible to refer to this year’s presentation of the Hong Kong Joy of Music Festival without making reference to the COVID 19 pandemic, which has been determining the way things are being done in more ways than one, all over the world. A lot of people have lost their lives and many more have had their livelihood affected by suffering and by the consequences of having suffered this viral infection. Different countries have adopted different policies in order to stop the spread of this infection but there is a common denominator to all these policies which is the need to keep isolated all those infected people in order to protect all others from being infected and the application of mass vaccination campaigns the speed of which vary enormously from country to country. All this has played havoc in Societies globally and musical presentations are not, of course, immune to all these problems. Although we are of the strong opinion that live performances will never be substituted by streamed ones, we are nowadays having access to very acceptable alternatives made possible by the advances in technology which has come to the rescue and has defined new fields of communication which are here to stay, not as substitutes but to co-exist with the traditional ways we are accustomed to. And that is how we started thinking of the hybrid format to present our HK Joy of Music Festival – 2019. A game changer that made all of this possible, was the privilege of having been able to enter into a partnership, for the presentation of this Festival, with the University of Music and Performing Arts, Vienna, to whom we are deeply thankful. On the assumption that it will be more likely that artists will be able to move between European countries without the need to quarantine, the latter seeming to be the likely situation if they were to come to Hong Kong, we organized for 8 of the 10 performances part of the Festival to take place live in Vienna and the other two to take place live in Hong Kong. The ones taking place in Vienna will be streamed live, in real time, to Hong Kong (each of the 8 performances will take place at the University of Music and Performing Arts, Vienna, at 2pm so that they will be presented, streamed live, in real time, at 8pm at the City Hall Concert Hall in Hong Kong). And in the case of the two performances which will take place at the City Hall Concert Hall in Hong Kong, they will be streamed live, in real time, to the University of Music and Performing Arts, Vienna (each of the 2 performances will take place at 8pm in Hong Kong so they will be streamed live at 2pm in Vienna). In all 10 cases, there will be a live audience both in Vienna and in Hong Kong. The two performances that will be presented live in Hong Kong will be by the Hong Kong Philharmonic Orchestra, conducted by Maestro Yves Abel, performing an all Saint Saёns programme, commemorating the 100th year anniversary of his death. - On Saturday 16th Oct., the programme will comprise of two symphonic works, the violin concerto No.3 (soloist: Wang Liang) and the piano concerto No.2, (soloist: Colleen Lee).
4
- On Sunday 17th Oct., the programme will comprise of two symphonic works, the cello concerto No.1 (soloist: Richard Bamping), the piano concerto No.5 (soloist: Rachel Cheung) and the duo concertante for violin, cello and orchestra: La Muse et le Poète (soloists: Wang Liang and Richard Bamping). - The remaining 8 concerts will take place live in Vienna and will be streamed live, in real time, to the Hong Kong City Hall Concert Hall, and will be featuring the following artists:
Opening the Festival, we will be presenting Alvaro Pierri (guitar), whose concerts have been a highlight and a permanent feature in our yearly Joy of Music Festival, since its inception.
Himself a Professor of Guitar at the University of Music and Performing Arts, Vienna, he will be offering a programme mostly of chamber music performed with the Logos Chamber Group, and in collaboration also with Gilberto Pereyra (bandoneon) and Giuseppe Andaloro (piano) and Honggi Kim (piano).
The University of Music and Performing Arts, Vienna, will be further represented by their star Chamber ensemble: The Simply Quartet, formed by Danfeng Shen (violin), Antonia Rankersberger (violin), Xiang Lyu (viola) and Ivan Valentin Hollup Roald (cello).
The Chopin Society of Hong Kong is proud to count with its own Chamber Group, (the LOGOS Chamber Group) consisting of four distinguished string players who have been playing together during its annual Joy of Music Festivals and its triennial HK International Piano Competitions.
They are: Michael Brooks Reid (violin), Magnus Johnston (violin), Joel Hunter (viola) and Pierre Doumenge (cello). This year, we are delighted to welcome a new artist to be part of the LOGOS Chamber Group: Rick Stotijn (double bass)
Each one of the five HK International Piano Competitions which the Society has presented so far, has contributed its First Prize Winner as an additional member of our Winners Club who, among other engagements, are invited every year to perform during the HK Joy of Music Festival. So far, the members of the Winners Club are: Ilya Rashkovskiy (Competition 2005), Jinsang Lee (Competition 2008), Giuseppe Andaloro (Competition 2011), Luka Okros (Competition 2016) and Honggi Kim (Competition 2019). Giuseppe Andaloro, Ilya Rashkovskiy and Honggi Kim will be giving solo piano performances during this Festival, combining their solo recitals with chamber music playing with members of the Logos Chamber Group. Luka Okros will be giving a cello and piano recital together with Anastasia Kobekina and they will be joined by the Logos Chamber Group to perform a piece by de Falla, while Jinsang will be giving a solo piano recital.
Last but not least, closing the Festival, we will be presenting a solo piano recital by Emanuil Ivanov, First prize winner of the Bussoni Competition 2019.
In these difficult times, we hope you will join us in the safety of the musical bubble Hong Kong – Vienna and enjoy the Festival !!!

As precautionary measures given that we are still going through a COVID 19 pandemic, the following rules will need to be observed to attend the performances at the Hong Kong City Hall Concert Hall: - Wearing masks. - To keep with social distancing measures, we will be making available only 50 % of the seating capacity of the City Hall Concert Hall, therefore only selling every other seat of each row of seats in the auditorium. - The minimum age of admission to the Auditorium will be 8 years old, since we understand that it might be difficult for younger children to understand and observe the above rules and therefore find this experience an unpleasant one. - Should the accompanying adults consider that a child, between 6 and 8 years old, will be interested enough in the programme to be presented on that evening, please, contact the office of the Society and should we all understand that this is the case, the Society will issue an admission letter to be presented on entering the hall. - We will be keeping the exchange of printed material to the absolute minimum, therefore programmes are not going to be printed. The detailed programme can be read in the website of the Society and full programme notes will also be available to be read before attending the concerts. - The title of each of the pieces being performed will be shown in screens located on each side of the stage.
