The main concert hall of the Hong Kong Cultural Center is the home of the Hong Kong Philharmonic Orchestra. It also hosts many great ensembles from around China and around the world. I have performed here with the Hong Kong Bach Choir. What is rather unique about this space is that the audience is seated on all sides of the stage, giving some unique views of the performers. Above, members of the Philharmonic prepare for a rehearsal of Bach’s Christmas Oratorio in 2013.
