To promote organ music and to nurture local talents, Hong Kong Cultural Centre has been organising the “King of the Instruments” Pipe Organ Education Series every year since 1999. The course, including 10 group lessons and a number of sessions of individ-ual tuition and practice, provides fundamental training on the operation and performance skills of the organ taught by accomplished local organists. The Series 2024 starts from mid-April until late December. The students and the teaching team will share their fruitful achievement with the audiences in the finale concert.
