| The hand-made pipe organ, by Austrian manufacturer Rieger Orgelbau, has always been the focal point of the magnificent Hong Kong Cultural Centre Concert Hall. With 4 manuals, 93 stops and 8 000 pipes, this “King of the Instruments” remains one of the largest mechanical tracker action concert hall organs in the world. To expose the public to this powerful territory of music, the Hong Kong Cultural Centre regularly organizes various organ music promotion and education programmes including Free Recitals, Education Concerts, Music Appreciation and Performance Technique Workshops and the Pipe Organ Education Series. Eminent organists from Hong Kong and overseas are invited to give free recitals, broadening the vision of the audience and making the Cultural Centre an international venue for organ music performance. Free education concerts are organized for the schools and the public to unlock the mystery of the pipe organ by detailed explanation cum demonstration. The Hong Kong Cultural Centre has been actively promoting the local organ education. Local young talents are invited to give public concerts to enrich their performing experience. The Cultural Centre also organizes organ music workshops or masterclasses by overseas organist-educators to enrich students' ability in performance and appreciation. To nurture the local talents, the Cultural Centre has been organizing the “King of the Instruments” Pipe Organ Education Series since 1999 to provide systematic training on basic pipe organ performance. |
