Founded in 1974, the Yao Yueh Chinese Music Association is 80-piece orchestra. The association aims to promote Chinese music and original works by Hong Kong composers.

This Sunday at the Hong Kong City Hall, the orchestra is giving a concert called, “A Thousand Colours”, featuring works by Hong Kong composers. The concert’s conductor and some of the orchestra members are with us right now.
