GayBird Leung has worked in the Hong Kong music industry since 1996 as a music director, composer and producer for over a hundred music productions, concerts and theatres. He continues to explore the realm of music creation, investigating potential formats of electronic music performance that enhance the music experience. Having worked across different spheres, GayBird’s creations go beyond music just for listening, producing cohesive works that combine visuals, mechanism, programming, craftsmanship and installation art and offer a comprehensive music experience.

Zephyr Quartet are Australia's leading genre-defying explorers of dynamic cross-art form music focused collaborations, an award-winning string quartet whose musicians also compose, arrange and improvise. This unique skill set together with Zephyr's open-minded approach allows them to skillfully traverse musical worlds and gives the quartet its own distinct voice.
