香港合唱新力量 (HKVC) 獲亞洲電視邀請參與《感動香港2013》節目拍攝,除了讓觀眾認識HKVC外,更以無伴奏演出歌曲「帝女花之香夭」。創辦人兼指揮 劉灝顯及兩位成員 (龐穎彤、孫承裕)接受訪問,一同分享於HKVC的使命及所得所學。
節目內,觀眾能更認識HKVC的背景、願景。團員們奉上自己兼職的收入,作為HKVC的營運經費,完成了一場又一場屬於自己的音樂會及音樂劇。這班年輕人希望用音樂回饋社會,幫助基層學童接觸音樂,推動音樂普及。及後,HKVC用籌集的資金,於3所小學舉辦「發展兒童音樂才能計劃」,免費教導小學生唱歌,盼望能讓他們知道:團員今天用自己的時間、才能去追尋自己的夢想,希望以生命影響生命,當他們長大後,都能正面發揮自己的影響力。
HKVC除了用音樂作慈善工作外,更有一個使命:希望社會知道,有一群八、九十後的青年可以發揮正能量、做實事。他們不只是有夢想而已,更確實行動、追尋夢想。
最後,節目的評委們祝福HKVC能繼續服務社會,讓更多小朋友有機會接觸音樂。
The Hong Kong Virtuoso Chorus (HKVC) was invited by Asia Television to participate in the filming of the 2013 Hong Kong Loving Hearts Campaign. This event brought the HKVC to the attention of previously unacquainted audiences via the Chorus’ unaccompanied performance of the Cantonese opera classic “Princess Chang Ping”. In the accompanying interview, HKVC founder and conductor Kelvin Lau, along with two other members Cindy Pong and SY Suen discussed the HKVC’s mission and development over the past years.
The performance and interview familiarized audiences with the HKVC’s background and vision. Members offered their part-time income to cover HKVC’s operating expenses and complete one after another of their own concerts and musicals. The young people in this group hope to bring music to the awareness of students and the public and thereby give back to the community. Later on, HKVC raised funds to organize the “Development of Children’s Music Talents Program” in three primary schools. The program gave primary school students free singing lessons in the hope of inspiring students to make full use of their own time in pursue their dreams and enable them to make a positive impact upon growing up.
Aside from music-related charity work, another of the HKVC’s missions to let the wider community know that a group of post ‘80s and ‘90s youth have the capacity to make use of their positive energy in bringing about real change. They are not only dreamers, but more importantly take decisive action in pursuing their aspirations.
Finally, the judges of the program wished the HKVC well in serving the community and bringing music to children.
