Four eighth-grade students formed their own Middle School club and learned how to play in a string quartet. Each individually accomplished in their instruments, the group learned the ropes of chamber music and entered a Hong Kong-wide music competition representing HKIS, and achieved the highest honors in their category. Hear from Caleb, Deron, Benji, and Jayden on their journey.
*Music excerpt from String Quartet No. 4 in C minor, Opus 18, No. 4 (First Movement) by Ludwig van Beethoven, performed by Benjamin Diao, Caleb Chung, Deron Lin, and Jayden Choi.
