About RTHK Quartet
The RTHK Quartet was founded in 2009 with a view to promoting the genre of chamber music and encouraging the art of chamber music playing in Hong Kong. Four outstanding musicians, violinists Ayako Ichimaru and Le Hoai-nam, violist Elvis Chan and cellist Laurent Perrin, sharing a common passion for chamber music, are the founding members of the RTHK Quartet and will introduce the rich world of chamber music, including some of the most profound and powerful music ever written, to the audience. The quartet members, who are all Hong Kong based musicians, come from different parts of the world: Japan, Vietnam, Hong Kong and Luxembourg. This diverse background reflects not only Hong Kong’s cosmopolitan environment but also the universal appeal of music. While being dedicated to the performance of the core classical repertoire, the RTHK Quartet is also committed to commissioning and performing works by Hong Kong composers and arrangements of Chinese music. |
