The opening ceremony of the “2015 Macao Library Week”, co-organized by the Cultural Affairs Bureau (IC in the Portuguese acronym), the Civic and Municipal Affairs Bureau, the Education and Youth Affairs Bureau and the Macao Library and Information Management Association, was held at the Old Court Building on 18 April. The Macao Orchestra was invited to present two string quartet concerts at the Sir Robert Ho Tung Library as part of the Themed Libraries activity of the 2015 Macao Library Week. The Themed Libraries activity, one of the highlights of the 2015 Macao Library Week this year, included outreach programmes based on the themes and location of the libraries so that readers can experience the characteristics and the reading atmosphere of different libraries. In conjunction with the theme ‘Artistic Perspective’ of the Sir Robert Ho Tung Library, the Macao Orchestra performed a number of classical pieces in the garden of the library on 19 April, enthusiastically received by the public. The Macao Orchestra will present yet another string quartet concert on 26 April (Sunday) at 2:30pm. The programme of this concert includes an excerpt from the Serenade No. 13 for Strings in G major, K 525, and the Turkish March by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart as well as Hungarian Dance No. 5 by Johannes Brahms. Admission is free and anyone interested in reading and music is welcome to attend. For enquiries about this activity, please call IC through tel. no. (853) 8295 7329 during office hours.
