Swing dance developed from, and was inspired by, the “swing” style of jazz music in the 1920s. Cab Calloway, long associated with Harlem's Cotton Club, was one of the band leaders who created the music that accompanied such dance styles as the Lindy Hop, the Balboa, the Collegiate Shag, and the Charleston. Today, there are hundreds of such styles. Even here in Hong Kong, Swing is still alive and kicking.

The project “Fusion 2”, on show at the Asia Society Hong Kong Centre until 25th June, is a collaboration between the Italian Cultural Institute and the Arkad Foundation of Seravezza. Focusing on the idea of “fusion”, the pieces on display are sculptures made of marble and wood. The exhibition features ten young artists, five from Hong Kong working primarily in wood and five of different nationalities, based in Italy, working in marble. Each sculptor from one place collaborated with an artist from the other, working not only on their own sculptures but also those of their partners.

Organised by the Hong Kong Harmonica Association, the 1st Hong Kong International Chromatic Harmonica Competition was held in early April. The call for entries opened in October 2020. Twenty-four contestants were shortlisted in August 2021. Four contestants made it to the final, and the winner was announced just last month. He's Ramiel Leung. He’s here with us right now.
