The “HSBC Insurance Creative Notes” project is a music-in-education programme sponsored by the HSBC Insurance and the Partnership Fund for the Disadvantaged of the Social Welfare Bureau co-sponsored by the Hongkong Bank Foundation, The Tung Foundation, and Towngas. In the 2009/10 academic year, Hong Kong Philharmonic Orchestra (HKPO) will present a series of Student Concerts, School Visits by ensembles made up of HKPO musicians and Instrumental Master-classes conducted by HKPO principals and musicians. An educational toolkit “Music Smart” developed by Mr. Perry So, HKPO’s Assistant Conductor (Education and Community Programmes), will be distributed to participating schools for free.

Come and join us to discover the joy of music!

Part I
16 Student Concerts will be held on 1, 2, 23, 24 March 2010 at Hong Kong Cultural Centre Concert Hall and on 17 March 2010 at Tsuen Wan Town Hall Auditorium. Mr. Perry So, Assistant Conductor (Education and Community Programmes) of Hong Kong Philharmonic Orchestra, will conduct and present these hour-long educational concerts of great enjoyment and entertainment. Come and enjoy these interactive performances by the full Orchestra! Please refer to the attached sheets for details of the student concerts.

Part II
The “Music Smart” educational toolkit will be distributed to participating schools free of charge. Music teachers can use the materials to further facilitate student’s participation in concerts and ensemble visits. We hope the students can better understand, appreciate and enjoy music. An introduction session was organized for principals and music teachers on 12 February 2010 (Fri). Our Assistant Conductor Mr. Perry So gave a brief introduction on the upcoming programme of student concerts and offered some advice on how to use the “Music Smart” educational toolkit more effectively. An online version of the “Music Smart” has been available with music recording recommendations in 2010 summer so as to benefit more students.

Part III
Ensemble Visits to schools on school days will be held from March 2010 to June 2010. The hour-long performances by ensembles formed by the musicians of Hong Kong Philharmonic include selections of light classics, entertaining introductions and demonstrations of instruments. Students will learn to appreciate classical music, and become acquainted with various musical instruments.

Part IV
10 Instrumental Master Classes will be organized this year. Students from different schools have a chance to perform and exchange ideas with each other. Our musicians will give inspiring insights and valuable opinions to students on playing instruments. These coaching sessions are especially designed for students who have had a few years of instrument playing experience and who want to achieve a higher standard. The master classes are scheduled in April and May 2010. Interested parties please mail to education@hkpo.com for enquiries.
