Drumming up wide connections

Chinachem Group is joining forces with the Hong Kong Chinese Orchestra for the second year to present the One Beat, One World: Connecting Through the Drum series as part of the Hong Kong Drum Festival.

This year's series commenced last week with a CCG Hearts Concert at the Hong Kong Cultural Centre Concert Hall.

Supported by the Hong Kong Tourism Board, the drum series encompasses a wide range of public activities, expanding in scale from the previous year.

These activities include drum training and performances across the 18 districts, involving not only children, teenagers and the elderly but also ethnic minorities and young people in custody

Training will be provided by instructors appointed by the Hong Kong Chinese Orchestra, and performance videos will be filmed at various scenic locations to promote cultural tourism.
