Musicus Soloists Hong Kong (MSHK) is Hong Kong’s leading chamber ensemble. Directed and initiated by renowned cellist Trey Lee, it is a fluid, inventive collective featuring the city’s best emerging artists. Each a talented soloist in their own right, MSHK’s musicians are alumni of various North American and European education institutions and laureates of global competitions. MSHK combines the gifts of these young musicians with the wealth of experience of preeminent international artists both in Hong Kong and abroad to offer up cross-cultural musical interpretations.

Playing concerts as both large and small ensembles, MSHK performs a wide repertoire ranging from Baroque to modern masters such as Arvo Pärt. Since its debut at Musicus Fest 2022, MSHK has appeared at leading venues including the Hong Kong Cultural Centre, Konzerthaus Berlin, Budapest’s House of Music Hungary, and Paris’s Salle Gaveau. The ensemble has collaborated with artists such as violinists Florian Donderer and Barnabás Kelemen, pianist Louis Lortie and Cameristi della Scala.

Highlights include the 2024 world and Asian premieres of Umbra, a double concerto by South Korean composer Seung-Won Oh, performed in Paris and Hong Kong with support from the Ernst von Siemens Music Foundation, followed by its Chinese Mainland debut at Shenzhen Concert Hall under Trey Lee’s leadership in 2025. 

MSHK is one of the key pillars of Musicus Society. It furthers the Society’s vision of promoting cross-cultural collaboration of music between leading local and international artists, and is a sign of its commitment to nurturing Hong Kong musical talent.
