The Hong Kong Economic and Trade Office in San Francisco (HKETO San Francisco) welcomed the Hong Kong Academy for Performing Arts (HKAPA) Nexus Ensemble by hosting a Hong Kong Cultural Evening series in Seattle (March 31, Seattle time), San Francisco (April 2, San Francisco time), and Los Angeles (April 6, Los Angeles time). The Nexus Ensemble’s West Coast debut was part of a cultural exchange tour aimed at strengthening cultural ties between Hong Kong and the United States (US).
The HKAPA Nexus Ensemble is a chamber ensemble formed this year, bringing together outstanding students and alumni of the Academy. The ensemble takes its name from the word “nexus” – a point of connection between musicians, musical traditions, and cultures. The current edition consists of six members including string musicians and coaches.
