• W4516384 abstract "Introduction Following its grand opening in May 2001, Hong Kong Central Library began two document collection campaigns almost simultaneously, one for local literary works and the other one for musical works. Jointly organized with two local organizations, namely, the Hong Kong Arts Development Council (HKADC) and the Composers and Authors Society of Hong Kong (CASH), the Hong Kong Music Collection Campaign was officially launched in early December 2001 to invite donations of music documents from the public. With the full consent and support from musicians, composers, collectors, and music institutes, etc., over 50,000 Hong Kong-related music documents have been successfully collected over the past few years, including quite a large number of rare and valuable musical heritage items that might otherwise have been permanently lost. As stated in one of the basic objectives in running the campaign, Hong Kong Central Library has started its first step in saving local music from oblivion. Historical Background In the early 1990s, the Arts Library of the ex-Urban Council Public Libraries in Hong Kong worked with the Hong Kong Composers' Guild and had established the first collection of local musical works. The Hong Kong Composers' Guild, founded in 1983, is a professional association of serious composers with its objectives to promote and cultivate music composition in Hong Kong. (2) Being invited to contribute, members of the Guild showed their support for the collection by donating their own musical works, some unpublished, to the Arts Library to form a collection. Some 307 copies of these originally composed music scores were received. They were then catalogued, duplicated, and shelved in the format of hard-bound copies in the Arts Library for public reference. Since most of the composer members of the Guild were young music scholars or students who were brought up in local or overseas music schools from the 1970s to the 1990s, the collection, however, more or less represented a specific but comparatively more contemporary and occidental music genre from composers in this particular generation. Obviously, the collection does not and cannot represent the entire music culture of Hong Kong. Hong Kong began as a small fishing village located in the south-eastern coast of Guangdong Province, China, and to this day, a great majority of its population is native Chinese. Despite the fact that it was a British colony from 1842 to 1997 and has long been influenced by western culture, indigenous Chinese music and Cantonese operatic songs, etc., are still the mainstream of music culture in Hong Kong. This is the entertainment for a majority of local citizens in their daily life. To establish a local music collection, at least, means also to collect and include the documents of such kinds of what we may call popular music, which, to a greater extent, more significantly represents the local music culture. [ILLUSTRATION OMITTED] Before World War II, occidental music activities were scarce and were always limited to the non-Chinese communities in Hong Kong. Some scholars might tend to agree that occidental styles of music activities, music education, and concepts of composition gradually evolved after the 1950s (3) when a large numbers of college-trained composers such as LIN Sheng-shih ([TEXT NOT REPRODUCIBLE IN ASCII.], 1914-1991) and HUANG You-di [TEXT NOT REPRODUCIBLE IN ASCII.]. 1912), were imported from post-war China while the arrival of Italian singer Elisio GUALDI (1905- ?) and Latvian pianist Harry ORE (1885-1972) also influenced the music development of early modern Hong Kong. Formal college music training commenced when the first private music school, the China Christian Sacred Music School ([TEXT NOT REPRODUCIBLE IN ASCII.], later renamed the Hong Kong Music Institute, [TEXT NOT REPRODUCIBLE IN ASCII.]), was established by Stephen Kwong SHAO ([TEXT NOT REPRODUCIBLE IN ASCII. …" @default.
