  • The programme will last for approximately 1 hour 30 minutes with no intermission.
  • Audience below 6 will not be admitted.
        The performance invites the most innovative jazz sounds of the region, including Golden Melody Award-winning HK-US contemporary jazz band Invisible Architecture (the jazz band leading by Alan Kwan, with Jordan Gheen, Matt Young and Mike Luzecky) and Chinese experimental jazz duo INNOUT (the jazz band by Xiao Jun (肖駿) and An Yu (安雨)). Navigating beyond genre boundaries, the two groups blend contemporary electronics and urban soundscapes with original jazz instrumentation, creating unique sounds that transcend traditional jazz imaginations. 
         
        The performance also features Jazz Futures Ensemble, an ensemble formed by six musicians from Jazz Futures workshops, creating music using latest music production technologies such as Ableton, Novation and Pioneer DJ to explore new probabilities of jazz on the stage

        Invisible Architecture
        Comprised of Hong Kong native guitarist Alan Kwan, American drummer Matt Young, and keyboardist Jordan Gheen, the binational contemporary jazz group Invisible Architecture received a Golden Melody Awards in 2022 for their debut album Between Now and Never and has become one of the most watched emerging jazz groups in the region. Together they will take the audience on an exploration between imagination and the imaginable with a virtuosic, live interpretation of their genre-melding works that fuse electronica with modern jazz vocabulary.

        Alan Kwan | Guitar
        Jordan Gheen | Keyboard

        INNOUT
        INNOUT is a conceptual duo initiated by young guitarist and composer Xiao Jun and jazz musician An Yu in 2018. INNOUT's music extracts the improvisation and dance elements of jazz music, and organically mixes and amplifies them with the sound design and 44 rhythms of electronic music to bring forth a highly experimental sound quality. INNOUT is dedicated to pure improvisation, and each performance is an immediate presentation of the present and a new generation of thinking about music. INNOUT is committed to pure improvisation, and each performance is an immediate presentation of the present and the birth of a new musical reflection.
