    ​​David Greilsammer, piano

    May 4, 2015 (Monday), City Hall Concert Hall 8pm (with preconcert talk by David at 7:00)

    A bold, innovative program crossing boundaries of space and time between the Baroque and the Contemporary.  Known for his fascinating and eclectic programs, Israeli pianist David Greilsammer’s New York recital was selected as one of the most interesting musical events of 2014 by the New York Times. In his Hong Kong concert, David Greilsammer pairs Baroque and Contemporary pieces in a unique musical conversation. 70 minutes with no intermission.
     
    (May 4, 2015, Hong Kong) Bridges between different musical worlds – eminent Israeli pianist/conductor David Greilsammer has taken Hong Kong audience on a special musical journey this Monday at the City Hall with his creation of programmes juxtaposing pieces from the seemingly contrasting periods of baroque and contemporary. 
     
    Jerusalem Quartet
    June 9, 2015 (Tuesday), City Hall Concert Hall 8pm

    The Jerusalem Quartet is simply one of the world's greatest string quartets.  They redefine how audiences perceive the string quartet repertoire, and set the benchmark against which other quartets are measured.  They will perform a broad ranging program of Mozart, Bartók and Schubert.
      
    Avi Avital & The Cologne Academy
    Nov 2, 2015 (Monday), City Hall Concert Hall 8pm 
     
    Recognized by The New York Times for his "exquisitely sensitive playing" and “stunning agility”, Grammy nominated Israeli mandolin player Avi Avital is one of the world’s most exciting young musicians. He is deeply committed to building a fresh legacy for the mandolin through virtuosic performance and commissioning new works in a range of genres.  He will be performing in Hong Kong with the Cologne Academy.
