2025-2026 Joint Performance with Beijing Normal University (Zhuhai)

On April 17th, both Choral and Instrumental Ensembles traveled to Beijing Normal University (Zhuhai) to participate in a joint exchange performance.

Earlier that day, Mr. Caleb WOO , the instructor of Choral Ensemble, and Prof. Stephen NG, Professor of Voice from West Chester University of Pennsylvania, held a "Choral and Vocal Technique Masterclass" at the Nanguo Theater at BNU Zhuhai's campus.

Prof. NG previously served as a musician-in-residence at Lingnan University five years ago, instructing undergraduate students vocal skills, and also served as a keynote speaker at the International Conference on 6 February this year. The two experienced teachers provided vocal instruction to the choirs of both universities and rehearsed together the famous choral work "Trusting the Rainbow" by Hong Kong composer Tam Tin-lok, further refining the students' vocal skills.

That evening, students from both schools gathered at the Nanguo Theater to share the results of their studies over the past year. In addition to the two schools' choirs performing different works, they also sang "Trusting the Rainbow" together at the end. Following this, students from BNU Zhuhai performed traditional Chinese music, while our students from the Instrumental Ensemble performed Hong Kong and Taiwan pop music. They also performed with Prof. NG on two pieces by John Dowland, a composer from the late English Renaissance.

Annual Performance - "The Wisdom of Seasons"

"Music is (an echo of) the harmony between heaven and earth" (The Book of Rites - Record of Music)

As the seasons change, embodying the cycle of yin and yang in nature, living things are born and nurtured. We, as people, immerse ourselves in nature, striving for a harmonious resonance. In the beautiful interplay of sound and rhythm, we all communicate: musicians attune to their instruments, to each other, and to the audience, while the audience connects with the music. In this shared space, listening becomes a mutual experience.

This year's annual performance, "The Wisdom of Seasons," presented by the Wong Bing Lai Music and Performing Arts Unit, seeks to connect with the Tuen Mun-Yuen Long-Tin Shui Wai community. Through this concert, we aim to explore the intricate relationships between music and individuals, groups, and communities. Our hope is for the music to act like the rejuvenating rains of Spring, healing and caring for the personal, communal, and social well-being.

Event posters were designed by our student WONG Sze Yu, who took inspiration from SEN learners describing their ideal season
