位效果，為藝術家提供無窮靈感。因此，我們選擇以流動 的城市為背景，將音樂會搬演至古蹟建築，讓觀眾透過精 心挑選的曲目，並以古蹟為靈感的新作，細味和深思香港 今昔。
誼樂社自 2013 年起，藉「樂 憶古蹟」社區音樂會系列將 世界級的演奏家帶到香港不同角落，利用音樂凸顯古蹟的 歷史文化意義。我們在 2019 年獲得香港賽馬會慈善信託基 金捐助，拓展全新的「賽馬會樂・ 憶古蹟」計劃，於大館 及其他香港古蹟建築搭建舞台，為觀眾呈獻全年的精彩節 目。除了原有的古蹟音樂會，我們將會注入多個新元素， 包括駐場藝術家、導賞及教育項目等，務求全面惠及觀眾、 學生以及社區人士。
誼樂社一向獲觀眾及大眾好評，並於 2022 年的夏季繼續獲 香港賽馬會慈善信託基金的捐助，推出名為「賽馬會樂 憶古蹟人 情 事」，這個古蹟推廣計劃為期三年，邀請 作曲家及不同的演藝人才，以新的視角去認識古蹟。此計 劃亦包括古蹟導賞、藝術家駐場計劃及樂訪校園等活動， 惠及觀眾、學生及社區。
With a history unique among world cities, Hong Kong’ s cultural heritage makes for a singular and compelling story for locals and visitors alike. The city ’ s dynamic contrast between the traditional and the ultra-modern provides ample inspiration for audiences to appreciate its enduring legacy. And what better way to accomplish this than to transform heritage sites into ad hoc concert stages with thematic programs and new works inspired by the history of the venues themselves!
Since 2013, Musicus Heritage has brought world-class performers to various places and settings in Hong Kong, thereby situating the music in the specific historical and cultural context of the surroundings. With support from The Hong Kong Jockey Club Charities Trust, we embarked on an exciting new chapter in 2019 with the Jockey Club Musicus Heritage Alive programan extended series at Tai Kwun, a center for heritage and arts located in the restored Central Police Station compound, and other heritage venues of note. In addition to site-specific concert performances, the new series is enhanced with artist residencies and educational events designed to benefit concert audiences, students and the community at large.
Having met with a positive response from audiences and the community, Musicus is supported by funding from The Hong Kong Jockey Club Charities Trust in summer 2022 for another three years, with the project named as Jockey Club Musicus Heritage Stories . The new series invites composers and artists from other art forms to participate, presenting new perspectives on historical sites. The series also includes heritage guided tours, artist residencies and school tours designed to benefit concert audiences, students and the community at large.
The program kicks off in November 2022 with concerts at Tai Kwun and Tao Fong Shan on the theme of perseverance. The concert at Tai Kwun features new work by a young composer who has done a residency to get inspiration from the architecture and history of the complex, while at Tao Fong Shan there will be an exhibition and a sharing about the craft of Cantonese porcelain by Guangcai porcelain artists.
We hope you enjoy this remarkable heritage journey!

「堅毅不屈」往往是推動歷史巨輪的重要元素。 「賽馬會樂・ 憶古蹟人・ 情・ 事」讓觀眾在欣賞音樂之餘可探討古蹟背後的故事。藝術總監李垂 誼和多位海外及香港優秀的演奏家，獻上多位歷盡辛酸的作曲家—亞倫斯基受盡酗酒的折磨；梅 湘於二次大戰時被俘困集中營；舒伯特及舒曼與健康及精神問題搏鬥；多赫南伊排除萬難營救13 位困於集中營的猶太人—— 的樂章。 歷史讓人思考人生，回到當下，本年誼樂社「作品徵集」優勝者陳易行為大館譜寫新曲，在大館 前身的隱閉小教堂，「感受」曾在此歷史建築群努力生活的人，映照近年在疫情期間香港人努力 面對種種變遷下的生活。
Patience and perseverance have been vital in giving people throughout history the fortitude to overcome adversity.
Trey Lee brings together an outstanding group of musicians for this Jockey Club Musicus Heritage Stories series of concerts in the historic surroundings of Tai Kwun, the former Victoria Prison. The theme of the series is “Perseverance”, and features music by a number of great composers who each battled hardship during their lives––Arensky and his addictions to alcohol; Messiaen, who was interned in a prison camp in the Second World War; Schubert and Schumann, who grappled with mental and physical illnesses; and Dohnányi, who went to great lengths to save Jewish musicians during the Holocaust.
Alongside these musical stories from the past will be the premiere of Musicus’ Call for Scores winner Eason Chan’s new composition, which charts the history of Tai Kwun’s prison chapel in various incarnations. The piece showcases the historical setting of Tai Kwun, bringing the former prison to life and serves as a fitting metaphor for Hong Kong’s spirit of perseverance.
All concerts will be held at JC Cube, with Shing Chun-hay as emcee.

A liminal passageway with curious church-like murals. A space so easily overlooked, this was once the main entrance of the entire Tai Kwun complex. Walled up over time, due to the complex’s expansion, it became a chapel for inmates, a sanctuary of the mind. As the years went by, the murals were painted over, and the space converted into an unidentifiable room.
The many roles and uses this space have taken on oddly echo a person’s personality throughout their life. The once proud and egotistical main entrance; the lost and reflective chapel seeking peace of mind; the forgotten space with a colorful past.
Through its many iterations and responsibilities, it continues to stand. This tiny space adapted and served its multiple purposes.
The three movements delve into the psyche of these personas, exploring these different states of mind. Celebrating and wishing upon the city its perseverance and adaptiveness in times of change.

Musicus Society was founded in 2010 as the vision of cellist Trey Lee to become an international music organization with quality performances and world-class home-grown artists. It is a Hong Kong registered charity with the Hon. Tung Chee-hwa as Honorary Patron.
The Society’s mission is to promote cross-cultural collaboration of music internationally between top local and overseas artists through performances and by nurturing the next generation of talent. Each year, the Society presents three major programs:
Musicus Fest
An international partnership for world-class artists to collaborate, showcasing our exceptional artists and working with our young talents to bring their artistry to new heights.
Musicus Heritage
In addition to the objectives of Musicus Fest, Musicus Heritage enhances the public’s knowledge of our culture and history by presenting music programs that reflect their heritage settings.
Musicus Inspires! is an educational program that aims to cultivate young talents from all social backgrounds. The initiative provides training and performance opportunities for emerging artists with great musicians, such as the “Call for Scores” for young composers, the “Young Artist Audition” and the “Ensemble Training” for instrumentalists. It also organizes “School Visits“ for students to explore various aspects of music.
Musicus Soloists Hong Kong gathers the best of our next-generation artists led by Musicus Society's Artistic Director, with the aim of becoming a leading chamber ensemble representing Hong Kong.
