Established in 1994 by 10 enthusiastic musicians, The Sregnis Singers has been singing in 'King's Singers' style'. With lots of classical choral works in its repertoire, it also does orchestral transcriptions and pop songs. Unlike the 6-part King's Singers, Sregnis Singers normally has 9 singers, with two altos and one mezzo-soprano, but it also does SSAATTBB in some occasions. The Sregnis Singers is also known for frequently performing works from local contemporary composers. It has premiered works by Doming Lam, Joyce Tang, Samuel Tam, Julian Chan, Issac Hui, Li Cheong, Eric Tse and Viola Yuen, to name a few. The Sregnis Singers was one of the Hong Kong representative teams in the Xi’an International Horticultural Exposition. It participated in Professor Victor Chan’s project in recording the “Chung Chi College 60th Anniversary Celebration Theme Song”. It also took part in pop singer Sammi Cheng’s album as a group of backup vocalists. 「合唱俠」成立於1994年，是本港第一隊無伴奏小組合唱組合 (a cappella ensemble) ，也是本港極少數的古典派無伴奏合唱組合，獲享譽全球的 King’s Singers讚譽為「音色、風格皆十分精煉」，又獲日本傳媒讚譽為「香港的Swingle Singers」。 「合唱俠」由十位熱愛小組合唱的音樂家創立，走 King's Singers 的路線，曲風和唱腔都是古典風格，classical choral 的味道強烈。一般編制是五女四男SSAAATTBB，加強了女中低音的比例，有時也會是四女四男SSAATTBB，跟六人的 King's Singers不同。選曲方面除了 King's Singers 的編曲作品、本地當代嚴肅作品外，也有一些影視改編作品和流行歌曲，跟以唱流行歌為主的本地無伴奏界別有所不同。 「合唱俠」是本地當代無伴奏合唱作品主力演出者及推廣者，曾首演多首本地無伴奏作品，包括「香港新音樂之父」林樂培、鄧慧中、譚展輝、陳玉彬、許德彰、李昌、謝建銓及阮慧玲的世界首演作品。 「合唱俠」曾應特區政府邀請，代表香港參與「西安國際園藝博覽會」表演；曾獲陳偉光教授邀請，灌錄中文大學崇基學院六十週年「崇基頌歌」；曾參與無線電視劇 “4 in Love”的配樂錄音；也曾替流行歌手鄭秀文和音。 Resonance 留聲樂團 Resonance is made up of a group of music lovers who wish to “leave” （留） the audiences a good impression of “sound” （聲）after its performance of voice-only music. The styles of its repertoire range from classical to pop, and it incorporates the music elements of the indigenous of Taiwan and Hakka as well. It aims at creating a unique voice of Taiwan. 因對音樂的「共鳴」（resonance）而緊密連結的一群人，希望藉由純粹的人聲，「留」下美好的「聲」音給觀眾。曲風橫跨古典至流行，亦善於融合原住民、客家音樂元素，詮釋屬於臺灣的聲音。 Awards: 2019 - First Runner-up, International Hakka Popular Music Festival 2018 - Silver Prize, Community Group, World Cup of Contemporary A Cappella Competition - Silver Medal, Community Group, Taiwan Cup of Contemporary A Cappella Competition - First Runner-up, Hakka Choral Competition - First Runner-up, International Hakka Popular Music Festival 2016 - Finalist, Asian Cup of International A Cappella Music Festival - Silver Prize, Community Group, World Cup of Contemporary A Cappella Competition - Silver Prize, Community Group, Taiwan Cup of Contemporary A Cappella Competition 獲獎紀錄： 2019 國際客家流行音樂節 第二名 2018 世界盃現代阿卡貝拉大賽 社會組 銀牌獎 臺灣盃現代阿卡貝拉大賽 社會組 金牌第二名 客家合唱比賽 第二名 國際客家流行音樂節 第二名 2016 國際阿卡貝拉藝術節 亞洲盃 決選 世界盃現代阿卡貝拉大賽 社會組 銀牌獎 臺灣盃現代阿卡貝拉大賽 社會組 銀牌獎 Other Concerts of the Festival其他音樂節音樂會

Led by Music Director Felix Yeung and Resident Conductor Sanders Lau, DK performs with the greatest commitment repertoire ranging from Renaissance polyphony and Baroque masterpieces, to Romantic delicacies and newly commissioned works by composers in the region. DK aims to bring the finest of artistic experiences to local audiences. The choir regularly brings in internationally renowned musicians, including conductors Helmuth Rilling (Bach Mass in B minor), Stephen Layton (Mozart Requiem), Jonathan Cohen (Handel Israel in Egypt and Messiah), Nicholas Cleobury (Rutter Requiem, Chilcott Requiem), Chen Yun-hung (contemporary works by Chinese composers) and countertenor Iestyn Davies (Bernstein Chichester Psalms, Pergolesi Stabat Mater). The choir’s artistic accomplishments have led to invitations of collaboration from eminent artists and organisations local and abroad. DK has repeatedly appeared in Hong Kong Arts Festival’s programmes, most notably a series of concerts in celebration of Benjamin Britten’s centenary in 2013. The choir has also appeared in two of the Festival’s PLUS programmes in 2016. The choir was featured for four consecutive years in the broadcasted RTHK 4 Christmas in the Park concert.

Performances with Hong Kong Sinfonietta (Faure Requiem) and Hong Kong City Chamber Orchestra (Karl Jenkins Requiem) were both critically acclaimed. In February 2015, DK was invited by the Hong Kong Economic and Trade Office to perform at the Victoria Theatre in Singapore. A keen advocate of Baroque music, the group joins hand with Early Music Society of Hong Kong in forming the first-ever local Baroque orchestra, Cammer Musicus, for the performance of Handel’s masterpiece Messiah in December 2015. Under the baton of its own Felix Yeung, DK has previously performed J.S. Bach St. Matthew Passion with an all-local cast of soloists, Buxtehude Membra Jesu Nostri with period instrument ensemble of the Hong Kong Academy of Performing Arts, and Purcell Dido and Aeneas with Professor Lo King-man as director.
