Alan Kwan x Eugene Pao

身兼結他手、作曲家及教育工作者，Alan Kwan近年憑個人作品及樂團 Invisible Architecture 在國際樂壇獲得廣泛關注，其專輯先後獲得金曲獎多項提名與肯定。Alan 的創作受到現代爵士、當代古典及世界音樂影響，既重視聲響質感，也著重旋律與即興之間的平衡。除了活躍於各地音樂節及演出舞台，他亦長期透過講座、工作坊及教育項目推廣爵士音樂文化，在演奏與傳承之間持續探索。

與他同台的，則是香港爵士樂的重要人物 Eugene Pao（包以正）。自八十年代以來，Eugene 一直是本地爵士樂發展的核心推動者之一，曾與 Michael Brecker、Jack DeJohnette、John Patitucci 等國際大師合作，並以演奏家、作曲家及製作人的身份活躍至今。多年以來，他不僅建立了屬於香港的爵士結他聲音，也為不同世代樂手提供了持續交流與合作的平台。

結他二重奏在爵士樂中是一種獨特而親密的演出形式。當沒有節奏組與和弦樂器的支撐時，兩位結他手需要同時兼顧旋律、和聲、節奏與空間感，透過細緻的聆聽共同建構音樂的流動。是次演出將結合兩代香港爵士結他手的音樂視野與經驗，透過精選曲目及即興對話，展現結他作為獨奏與合奏樂器的多重可能。

Alan Kwan, a critically acclaimed guitarist and composer, is known for his sophisticated balance of modern jazz, contemporary classical, and world music. A consistent presence on the international stage, he is equally dedicated to education, bridging the gap between performance and legacy-building.

Joining him is Eugene Pao, the foundational figure of Hong Kong jazz. Since the 1980s, Eugene has collaborated with global masters like Michael Brecker and Jack DeJohnette, establishing the city’s jazz guitar identity and consistently mentoring the next generation of players.

The guitar duo is a uniquely intimate format. Stripped of a rhythm section, the two musicians must intuitively navigate melody, harmony, and space to build the music’s flow. This performance brings together two generations of Hong Kong jazz, using a curated repertoire and spontaneous improvisation to showcase the infinite possibilities of the guitar.
