This 2023/2024 season, Hong Kong Sinfonietta’s hugely popular and free-of-charge “Panasonic Proudly Sponsors: Good Music This Lunch” lunchtime concert series will bring to music lovers in Hong Kong 10 programmes of beautiful chamber music under the support of Title Sponsor Shun Hing Group, providing a relaxed environment for audiences to enjoy classical music and recharge in the middle of a work day. The uplifting and laid-back spirit of the concert series is brilliantly encapsulated in the brand new visuals illustrated by HKS Artist Associate Vivian Ho, melding the concepts of great food with great music. Shun Hing Group has been supporting this initiative to promote classical music in the community since 2016, making an invaluable contribution towards the local development of arts appreciation.

The next “Panasonic Proudly Sponsors: Good Music This Lunch” concert will take place at Hong Kong City Hall Concert Hall on 16 May (Tue) at 12:40pm, and features Brahms’ charming String Quintet No 2, British contemporary composer Allan Stephenson’s intriguing Trio for Three Bassoons and more. A particular highlight will take place in the concert on 13 Jun (Tue), where Hong Kong Sinfonietta’s Concertmaster James Cuddeford will lead a performance of French Romantic composer Chausson’s Concerto for Violin, Piano & String Quartet.
