The Hong Kong Teachers’ Chorus

The Hong Kong Teachers’ Chorus was founded to promote musical appreciation amongst the teaching professions and society as a whole. It is a non-profit making organization, set up in 1977 and funded mainly by members’ fees and donations.
We believe the Teachers’ Chorus is unique. The Chorus’ repertoire, selected to give pleasure to both discriminating music-lovers and family audiences, includes both Chinese and foreign songs, a fact which reflects the emphasis on language tuition of Hong Kong’s teaching profession. Our membership includes non-teachers, so that the Chorus fosters communication between the teaching profession and the general public. To encourage the young, we charge half-price membership fees for full-time students.

The mission of the Chorus is to promote musical education, and to hold events that cultivate the enjoyment of popular songs. Thus, we provide family recreation in a stimulating but stress-free atmosphere as a healthy counterbalance to Hong Kong’s busy lifestyle.
