Musicus Fest 2015 trailer
Musicus Fest is a meeting point for artists from across the world to interact and inspire future generations. Apart from presenting enthralling concerts, the unique Musicus Heritage concert series takes festival artists out into our community – at various locales – while putting the music into context with the cultural significance of its surroundings. Moreover, the launch of Musicus Inspires! has brought to Hong Kong's young musicians what their counterparts elsewhere have long enjoyed: a chance to elevate themselves to a higher level of artistic excellence through meaningful interaction with distinguished artists from different parts of the world.
