Hong Kong Sinfonietta and Yip Wing-sie in a fine Toronto debut at Koerner Hall

Patrick P.L. Lam, 4th October

To mark the 15th anniversary of Hong Kong’s handover to China, the Hong Kong Sinfonietta was invited to kick-start the Koerner Hall’s chamber music series as part of their debut tour in North American. Despite competing concerts held downtown that very same evening, those who supported the HKS were rewarded by their fine performances.
