'Music for the Millions' Concerts

Untitled Document

The Music Office has organised the ‘Music for the Millions’ (MFM) Concerts since December 1977, which aims to familiarise students with Chinese and Western orchestral instruments and to stimulate their interest in fine music. During the school year, the Music Office Instructors’ Ensembles give regular MFM Concerts in primary and secondary schools with educational and entertaining programmes. Aside from the school tour, we also arrange MFM Concerts at the Leisure and Cultural Services Department (LCSD) performance venues, which allows students to enjoy the music in a professionally equipped concert hall.

The Music Office Instructors’ Chinese, Wind and String Orchestras regularly hold on-campus concerts for free, which aim to familiarise students with Chinese and Western orchestral instruments and to stimulate their interest in music. To enhance students’ sense of engagement and concert atmosphere, schools are recommended to teach students the MFM Theme Song in music lesson and encourage students to read the Music Guide and Introduction to Chinese and Western Musical Instruments on our website prior to the MFM Concert.

‘Music for the Millions’ Concert - Celebration of Nature

Festive celebrations and nature are two of composers' beloved themes. Composers use musical instruments to imitate the sounds of nature and write notes to depict the joy of festivities, thereby expressing their love for life. The Music Office Instructors' Chinese Orchestra, Instructors' String Orchestra and Instructors' Wind Orchestra guide us to an adventure into ever-changing nature starting from the weather of the seasons, folk festivities and the natural landscape respectively. It will be an aural feast of music with an ethnic flavour for everyone’s pleasure.
