香港交響管樂團 The Hong Kong Symphonic Winds
1987年5月,黃日照先生以「推廣管樂音樂,培訓本地一流管樂手」為目標,組織成立一隊具規模的業餘管樂團 - 香港交響管樂團。當時的樂團成員,大部分是黃氏在香港三十多年教學生涯裡培訓出來的學生。
許多年來,後起之秀陸續加入,除了由黃氏的學生訓練出來的第二代,甚至是第三代樂手,亦有其他熱愛管樂的人士參與。樂團目前擁有一百多名來自專業、業餘及學界的出色樂手。而其中三十多位專業音樂工作者更是活躍於本地及國際舞台上演奏。
香港交響管樂團首演音樂會於1988年2月20日在沙田大會堂舉行。其後,經常得到前市政局、前區域市政局及康樂及文化事務署的邀請,舉行一系列介紹和推廣管樂的音樂會。樂團走遍港九新界,為社會各界演出超過三百場音樂會,演奏無數古今中外名作。
樂團亦進軍海外,於澳門,上海,台灣,德國,荷蘭等地演出,俱獲高度評價。樂團更分別在2013年和2017年於荷蘭舉行的WMC世界音樂大賽中,獲得合奏第一組別金奬殊榮。
樂團多次與世界級音樂家合作,如2008年獲得美國輕音樂大師安達臣的家屬授權,將原本是雙鋼琴版的《鋼琴協奏曲》改篇成管樂伴奏版,成為亞洲首演曲目。2015年周年音樂會上,樂團更請到美國管樂界殿堂級人物,伊士曼音樂學院的小
號教授詹士湯臣,合演《小號與管樂合奏奏鳴曲》。
樂團每年舉辦室內和協辦戶外音樂會。2010年開始,春季音樂會以老幼咸宜的輕鬆樂曲為主打,加上夢幻般舞台,嘉年華似的裝束,活潑幽默的演出,不但為香港管樂界開展嶄新一面,更連續七年於香港文化中心音樂廳和香港大會堂錄得全院
滿座的紀錄,成為樂團另一成功標記。
作為一支社區樂團,香港交響管樂團十分支持社區及慈善活動,我們曾與國際獅子會港澳303區、盲人輔導會、香港防癌會等團體和機構聯合舉辦籌款音樂會。
香港交響管樂團乃香港註冊非牟利團體。

Founded by Mr. Alfonso Wong in May 1987, The Hong Kong Symphonic Winds (HKSW) is the first amateur band with considerable size and structure in Hong Kong, formed mostly by talented students of Mr. Wong.
Among the 100+ members of HKSW, 30+ are distinguished players actively performing on local and international stages, and many members are also making their great efforts and contributions to music education.
Since the debut concert in Shatin Town Hall on 20 February 1988, HKSW has started to work with the former Urban Council and the LCSD (Leisure and Cultural Services Department) to promote music among people from all walks of life in Hong Kong. Over 300 concerts have been held all over Hong Kong, HKSW brings the joy of music to every home by visiting every district. The repertoire includes masterpieces from both the East and the West.
Our missions are not bound by any geographic or national boundaries, HKSW performed in various places including Macau, Shanghai, Taiwan, Germany and Netherlands. In the competition of the World Music Contest in 2013 and 2017, HKSW achieved the gold medal in the “Harmony First Division”.
HKSW also had performance with world-class musicians. In 2008, two concerts were held to pay tribute to Leroy Anderson. With the permission of Anderson’s family, HKSW re-arranged his piano concerto for piano solo with wind band accompaniment. In 2015, HKSW performed with James Thompson, the renowned soloist and professor of Eastman School of Music, in the annual concert.
HKSW hosts indoor and outdoor concerts regularly. Since 2010, HKSW launched concerts with repertoire chosen especially for children. It becomes a huge success in the local market, and attracts lots of children with their families to enjoy a night of music and laughter together. As of 2018, we have achieved record performances of 7 continuous full house concerts at the concert hall of Hong Kong Cultural Centre and Hong Kong City Hall.
HKSW engages in a variety of charitable activities held by different organizations, such as Lions Clubs International, The Hong Kong Society for the Blind and Hong Kong Anti-Cancer Society etc., as a contribution to society.
The Hong Kong Symphonic Winds is a registered non-profit organization in Hong Kong.
