Centre for Community Cultural Development(CCCD) introduced Community Music from the United Kingdom, developed by Pete Moser, the founder of the British community music group More Music. Pete Moser has been invited to Hong Kong to hold workshops and courses many times to share his experience and train local community music instructors.
Using different community music forms, such as beat games and folk songs, people with different musical skills are empowered to experience and create their own music. Through music research, workshops, and community choir, Centre for Community Cultural Development assists participants in composing music based on their life stories, community history, and community-based public agendas. We believe in "Everyone Can Make Music."
Supported by the Hong Kong Jockey Club Charities Trust Fund, CCCD launched a three-year community music project ‘Jockey Club Community Remixing Music’ in 2018. So far, we have carried out more than 150 music sharing sessions in public spaces and workshops, moreover two large-scale performances with more than 150 music and 1,500 spectators participating.
In 2020, CCCD has organized Hong Kong's first Community Music Conference for the Asia Pacific Community Music Network. Community music educators and practitioners from international regions and shared ideas and experiences about the different aspects and issues within the Asia Pacific region.
