SO Ho-chi

View Works

‭So Ho-chi is a multimedia composer whose works range from instrumental, vocal, and choral‬ works to electroacoustic composition, field recordings, music theatre, and audiovisuals.‬ Growing up in postcolonial Hong Kong, identity and multiplicity have been recurring themes‬ in his works. Often focusing on re-interpreting and re-contextualizing the sonic and‬ performative materials appropriated, he creates a new form or situation with multiple layers‬ to the sound and performance as a means to question the convention and re-imagining new‬ possibilities of organization of the materials, to evoke questions hidden beneath the‬ convention.‬

His works have been selected to perform in various music festivals, competitions, and‬ concerts, such as Gaudeamus Muziekweek, ISCM World Music Days 2019, Asian‬ Composers’ League, and Three Choirs Festival. He has collaborated with various‬‭ orchestras, ensembles, and instrumentalists, including the Hong Kong Philharmonic‬‭ Orchestra, Orkest de Ereprijs, Estonian National Symphony Orchestra, New European‬‭ Ensemble, Hong Kong New Music Ensemble, MAZE ensemble, The Carice Singers, RTHK‬‭ String Quartet, Michela Amici and Erwan Keravec.‬‭

He studied composition and electronic music at the Hong Kong Academy for Performing Arts‬‭ on a full scholarship from the Hong Kong Jockey Club Music and Dance Fund and continued‬‭ his studies at the Royal Conservatoire of The Hague with support from the Composers and‬‭ Authors Society of Hong Kong Music Scholarship. During his time in The Hague, he‬‭ collaborated with artists and organizations beyond the music field, including Nederlands‬‭ Dans Theater and the Academy of Theatre and Dance in Amsterdam.‬
