Welcome Concert 2025 - University Philharmonic Orchestra, HKUSTSU香港科技大學逸夫演藝中心、香港科技大學學生事務處、香港科技大學學生會管弦樂團

Resonance: Echoes of the Past, Rhythms of Tomorrow

Rationale: For as long as music has existed, it has been used as a way to reflect feelings of joy, excitement, and happiness. In that vein, our 2025 Welcome Concert will mirror the emotions of the University Philharmonic Orchestra, HKUSTSU celebrating its 20th Anniversary with a theme of "Resonance." This theme will transport our audience members on a journey of commemoration of the past, anticipation of the future, and appreciation of the present.
