City Chamber Orchestra of Hong Kong (CCOHK) holds a unique position as one of Asia’s leading chamber orchestras. Members are professional musicians experienced in playing diverse styles ranging from Baroque and classical to East-West crossover, tango, Bollywood and jazz.
CCOHK’s mission to cultivate young audiences for music in Hong Kong has led to the creation of several original and fully staged productions incorporating actors. These include Magnificent Mozart, The Star Bach, Vivaldi Unmasked, The Bonn Man, WILD (The Musical) and Bug Symphony which won the Public Choice Award at the YAMawards in Portugal 2017. At the helm of CCOHK’s artistic and executive planning is CCOHK’s founder Leanne Nicholls, herself a prizewinning performer who was awarded a commendation certificate from the Home Affairs Bureau of the Hong Kong SAR Government in 2009. French conductor Jean Thorel served as chief conductor from 2008 to 2016 and was succeeded by the Armenian conductor and pianist Vahan Mardirossian in 2019.
