The Windpipe Chinese Music Ensemble was founded in 2003 with promoting Chinese and Hong Kong local music culture as its mission. Apart from organizing a lot of intellectual and cultural programmes on Chinese music in Hong Kong, the Ensemble has toured extensively as well. To demonstrate the unique charms and styles of Chinese ensemble music, the Ensemble has commissioned and premiered new works by local composers.
