Described as “beautifully evoked…in a type of ordered chaos”, “meticulous attempt on the balance of the sound of modern music”, the music of Hong Kong composer Dr Chris Hung has first gained international recognition in 2010, with his work “Infinite Soundscape” premiered by International Contemporary Ensemble (USA) at the Darmstadt Summer Course in Germany. 

One of the salient features of Hung’s composition is his use of kaleidoscopic details, merging different cultural styles between the East and West. His diverse oeuvre includes an array of about 70 works from instrumental solo to orchestral music, as well as audio-visual works and choral music. Hung’s scores are published by Universal Edition scodo (Germany), BabelScores (France) and Trübcher Music Editions (UK). 

Over the past fifteen years, Dr Hung’s works have been performed and broadcasted throughout Europe, as well as USA and Asian countries in various leading festivals, such as Beijing Modern Music Festival (China), ISCM World Music Days (Slovenia), Sibelius 150th Anniversary Celebration (Finland), Music Biennale Zagreb (Croatia) etc. He was composer-fellows in CoMA New Music Residency (UK), Singapore Chinese Orchestra Workshop and composer-in-residence of Nexus Ensemble. 

In addition, Hung was a recipient of numerous awards, such as ALEA III International Composition Competition (USA) (First Prize),“Sofia 2013” International Composition Competition (Bulgaria) (First Prize); International Composers' Competition of the I. J. Paderewski Academy of Music (Poland) (Second Prize); EarShot: China – U.S. Composers Competition (USA), Singapore Chinese Orchestra Composition Competition and International Jean Sibelius Composition Competition (Finland) (Finalists) among others. 

He currently serves as Secretary (Administration) of Hong Kong Composers' Guild. He was Hong Kong Representative attending the 65th International Rostrum of Composers held in Budapest, Hungary in 2018. 

Hung holds a Doctor of Music degree from the Chinese University of Hong Kong. He received guidance under the tutorlege of Prof. Chan Wing Wah and Prof. Victor Chan. He currently teaches music in School of Continuing and Professional Studies, Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUSCS), School of Continuing Education, Hong Kong Baptist University (HKBUSCE), Baron School of Music and other Music Institutions in Hong Kong.

被描述為「美妙地喚起…在一種有序的混亂中」、「對現代音樂聲音平衡的細緻嘗試」，香港作曲家洪銘健博士的音樂首次獲國際稱譽，是在2010年德國達姆施塔特夏季現代音樂節中作品「無盡聲景」由美國國際當代樂團首演。 

他的作品其中一個顯著特徵，是經常加上近似萬花筒般的許多細節，並且融合東西文化的風格。多樣化的作品包括器樂獨奏以及管弦樂約70部，此外亦有影像配樂及合唱音樂。洪氏的樂譜由德國Universal Edition scodo、法國BabelScores和英國Trübcher Music Editions出版。
