The Hong Kong Youth Wind Philharmonia was formed in September this year as a non-profit origination under the auspices of the Hong Kong Wind Philharmonia, Hong Kong’s first wind orchestra formed by professional musicians. Young music students were well represented in the audiences of the Hong Kong Wind Philharmonia’s previous concerts which gave us the inspiration to create the Hong Kong Youth Wind Philharmonia. These talented young musicians, all under the age of 25, were selected by audition to be members of the Hong Kong Youth Wind Philharmonia. The aim of this new ensemble is to train and provide guidance to future generations of young Hong Kong wind, brass and percussion players to continue to maintain the highest level of performance possible and continue this great tradition of music making in Hong Kong.
Victor TAM is the Founder and Chairman of the Hong Kong Wind Philharmonia, the Hong Kong Youth Wind Philharmonia and the Hong Kong Junior Wind Philharmonia.
