Dragon, drums, music and dance: HKSARG celebrates 10th anniversary
Mr. Tai Keen-man, Dr. Rosanna Wong, JP & Mr. Thomas Chow, JP  

We are going to celebrate the creation of the HKSAR by attempting to break the world record for the largest drum ensemble ever. On the afternoon of June 30, as all of Hong Kong gathers for celebratory parties, we will be gathering ten thousand young people together for a magnificent drum roll. With celebrity pop stars such as the Twins and Kelly Chen, ten young local piano stars including Aristo Sham and Rachel Cheung, dancing, mass choral singing and an impressive dragon dance, they will put on a splendid show at the Hong Kong Coliseum.

Youth from over 130 schools and members of musical organizations such as the Hong Kong Children's Choir, the Hong Kong Dance Federation, the Hong Kong Percussion Centre and the Hong Kong Youth Symphony Orchestra will be there. Five hundred of the drummers are coming from the mainland, Macau and Taiwan and music has been composed specially. There will be a live broadcast from the Hong Kong Coliseum by RTHK and TVB. It is definitely not to be missed.

This is the fifth in a series of dragon-themed happenings organized by the Federation with the help of the Home Affairs Bureau, LCSD and the All China Youth Federation. Find out more by ringing Katherine, tel 2123 9598.
