Sergei Nakariakov (Trumpet)

“Unbelievably stunning!”  Pizzicato

“He proves himself to be the ‘Paganini of the trumpet’, nothing is too quick or delicate for him.” 
Mannheimer Morgen

“Sergei Nakariakov is perhaps not a normal human being!”  
Süddeutsche Zeitung

“Sergei Nakariakov must be a fish, who breathes with his gills!”
Münchner Merkur

  • A prodigy dubbed “the Paganini of the trumpet” (after a performance at only 13) and “Caruso of the trumpet” (Musik & Theater), he made his débuts at Salzburg Festival and Ivo Pogorelich Festival at age 14 and received the Prix Davidoff the following year at Schleswig-Holstein Music Festival
  • His remarkable discography of not only the trumpet repertoire but also transcriptions of violin, piano and cello masterpieces has garnered the highest praises including “R10 – Coup de foudre” (Classica-Répertoire), RTL d’Or
  • A regular guest at the world’s most prestigious venues and festivals, and has collaborated with the top orchestras and conductors such as Ashkenazy, Bělohlávek, Eschenbach, Gergiev, Marriner, Temirkanov, etc

 

Gábor Boldoczki (Trumpet)

“…no one can doubt Boldoczki’s accomplishment, successfully entering the idiom of these works and with such consistently good taste and judgement.”
Gramophone

“He is a wonderful trumpet soloist with an unprecedented suppleness and a uniquely fluid legato, soft as butter.”
Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung

“Stylish tone, lively flexibility, technically charming – ultimately Boldoczki performed jumps, scales, trills and melodic lines one after another with virtuose agility.”
Nordkurier

  • 1st Prize (at the age of 14), National Trumpet Competition, Hungary
  • 1st Prize, ARD International Music Competition, Munich
  • Winner of “Grand Prix de la Ville de Paris”, the 3rd International Maurice André Competition, Paris

The APPRECIATE concerts are, mainly, classical concerts featuring guest artists and conductors of world renown.  Apart from performing orchestral masterpieces, Hong Kong Sinfonietta regularly commissions new works and introduces to audiences works that are rarely heard in Hong Kong.

Music is good for everyone! The LEARN series takes audiences aged 0 to 88 into the world of classical music through specially designed concert series including Good Music for Babies, Good Music for Kids, Short-cut to Classical Music, Know Your Classical Music and HKS McDull Music Project.

In the light-hearted RELAX concerts, Hong Kong Sinfonietta shares with audiences great music ranging from orchestral favourites to music from movies and musicals.

The ENCOUNTER series offers unique opportunities for audiences to get close to the music and the performers through chamber music concerts, talks, often at unconventional venues or time. These include Good Music This Lunch, Good Music @ The Fringe, Beyond Good Music @ The Fringe, HKS ArtisTree Residency and UpClose Encounters.

Often referred to as “one of the world’s great small orchestras”, Hong Kong Sinfonietta has been invited to go on many TOURS in Europe, Asia, South and North Americas, sharing good music with audiences in over 30 cities.  In 2017/2018, the orchestra will make its début in Germany and perform at festivals in France, Portugal, as well as the Beethoven Easter Festival in Poland.

WHAT ELSE?  Apart from classical concerts, Hong Kong Sinfonietta regularly appears in staged productions by Hong Kong Ballet, Opera Hong Kong and visiting arts groups such as The Royal Ballet, American Ballet Theatre, Bolshoi Ballet and Tanztheater Wuppertal Pina Bausch. This season, Hong Kong Sinfonietta will also host the 1st International Conducting Competition.
