Flute：CHAN Ling-fai Levin

Levin is a rising star in the international scene. In the summer of 2008, Levin became the twelfth recipient of the Lady Fung Memorial Music Fellowship（馮秉芬爵士夫人紀念音樂獎助金）of the Asian Cultural Council（亞洲文化協會）, which funded his trip to the famed Aspen Music Festival in the United States. There, he received lessons from world-class flutist Mr. Mark Sparks and participated in the performances of several orchestras, playing under the baton of internationally-famous conductor Maestro David Zinman, and other distinguished conductors. He is also a finalist in the Conservatoire National Supérieur de Musique（巴黎的法國國家高等音樂學院）auditions in Paris, a milestone status that principal flutists of world-class professional orchestras possess. Now 21, recipient of the Robert H N Ho Family Foundation for Outstanding Merit （何鴻毅家族基金優異學生獎學金）, Levin is in the second year of the Bachelor Degree Programme at the Hong Kong Academy for Performing Arts (香港演藝學院), majoring in flute performance under Mr. Timothy Wilson. He also had the precious opportunities of learning from various great masters of the flute, namely, Sir James Galway, Emmanuel Pahud, Pierre-yves Artaud, Vincent Lucas and Paul Edmund-Davis in recent years. Levin has quickly distinguished himself as a concerto flutist. He gave his premiere concerto performance with the Grandmaster Youth Orchestra in December 2005, performing Mozart concerto in G major for flute. In 2007, Levin was one of the winners in the Concerto Trial at HKAPA, and performed Devienne Flute concerto No.7 in E minor with the APA Academy orchestra in June.
