CityU is proud to present the first Arts Festival organised by the Cultural and Sports Committee this autumn, bringing various forms of arts by world-class artists to the campus.

The Festival was kicked off by the performance of Maestro Paolo Morena (violin) and Ms. Lucia Yung (bassoon) with CityU Philharmonic Orchestra cum Opening Ceremony on 14 October. Ms. Yung was impressed by the passion and music skills of the Orchestra members and complimented that they were a pleasure to work with.

Mr. Morena, who also taught some young CityU violinists in his master class, appreciated the students’ dedication to music and hoped that more music classes and performances would be offered to enhance their level of competence in music.

The Arts Festival encompasses a great variety of art events, including an oil painting exhibition, concerts, opera screenings and dance performances by a wonderful array of professional artists.
