因為一場突如其來的新型冠狀病毒疫情,我們的城市香港,以至世界各地所有人都面對前所未有的挑戰。為了減少社交接觸以防止病毒在社區擴散,不少音樂會和演出節目均被取消。
港樂一直深信音樂的力量,它是勇氣、療癒、平靜、團結的泉源。我們的使命是將美樂帶給世界各地的樂迷,並不限於指定的演出場地內。自二月起,我們精心策劃一系列網上音樂節目──「Phil Your Life With Music」,分享我們對音樂的熱愛,我們期望以更特別的方式與大家連繫。港樂音樂總監梵志登、首席客席指揮余隆、一眾獨奏家及港樂樂師拍攝短片為大家打氣,以音樂為安在家中的您送上正能量。
為將這個鼓舞人心的網上音樂節目──「Phil Your Life With Music」推向更廣闊的層面,我們聯同更多港樂成員及友好,一同合奏及演唱香港的永恆經典《獅子山下》,獻給香港及世界各地正勇敢面對挑戰的每一位。
「Phil Your Life With Music: 獅子山下」網上音樂影片集逾百人參與演出,由港樂樂師演奏樂章,而港樂合唱團、港樂行政團隊、董事局成員、贊助商、支持者、香港兒童合唱團、港樂會會員及青少年聽眾計劃會員則參與大合唱,傳遞我們對音樂的熱誠,藉此給大家鼓勵。
非常感謝參與和支持「Phil Your Life With Music: 獅子山下」演出的每一位,影片終於大功告成!歡迎大家轉發,讓香港及世界各地所有人一同感受音樂的力量。
我們將於5月及6月公布有關更多不同類型的音樂節目及港樂2020/21樂季的消息,請密切留意!
別看輕音樂的力量,希望大家一如以往的堅強而且充滿希望。期待很快能再次與大家見面!

Phil Your Life With Music - Beneath The Lion Rock
Presented by: Hong Kong Philharmonic Orchestra
Produced by: Hong Kong Philharmonic Orchestra
Platform: Facebook, YouTube
Link: https://youtu.be/YokHRShqTik
Synopsis: During this time of COVID-19, the world, our city, and each one of us, face unique challenges. Social distancing is considered one of the best ways of stopping the spread of the virus. As a result, many concerts and performances have been cancelled.
The HK Phil believes passionately in the power of music. Music is a source of courage, healing, calm and unity. It is our mission to share our passion with people everywhere, not just in the designated venues but also in other accessible ways. Since February, we have been sharing our love of music and support for our community through "Phil Your Life With Music". Our Music Director Jaap van Zweden, Principal Guest Conductor Yu Long, guest artists, and the Orchestra’s musicians have prepared a series of short videos to brighten up your life and keep us all connected.
To expand our inspiring campaign, “Phil Your Life With Music”, we have united with members of the community to present a timeless song from Hong Kong — Beneath the Lion Rock — to our beloved city and to everyone around the world as we overcome the epidemic together.
Over hundred people have participated in the “Phil Your Life With Music — Beneath the Lion Rock” video, including musicians from the Orchestra and the HK Phil Chorus, the administration team, board members, sponsors and supporters, The Hong Kong Children’s Choir, and Club Bravo and Young Audience Scheme members. We have all come together to present this beautiful gift.
Thank you to everyone who contributed to the creation of the video. Feel free to share and show your support to this meaningful music-making project.
The new 2020/21 season and more music projects will be announced in May and June. Please stay tuned!
Never underestimate the power of music. Stay strong and hopeful as always. We hope to see you again very soon!
