This summer, the Hawai’i Symphony Orchestra celebrates the debut of its brand new music director Dane Lam! The accomplished conductor and artistic director has an impressive tenure leading world-class orchestras. His internationally renowned reputation precedes him, and thus, his arrival in Hawaii is met with a grand concert featuring his “mix tape.” This performance will be held at the iconic Waikiki Shell set to entertain both locals and tourists. Music lovers can look forward to Lam’s preferences comprising masterpieces such as Nikolai Rimysky-Korsakov’s Scheherazade, The Calendar Prince, Pyotr Tchaikovsky’s Symphony No. 5, Valse, Richard Strauss’ Don Juan, and Francois Borne’s Fantasie Brillante on Themes. The concert will also feature Hawai’ian musicians Trishnalai and Michael-Thomas Foumai, who will deliver exquisite pieces. Lastly, the show will have a grand finale featuring Ludwig Van Beethoven's Symphony No. 5.

Dane Lam assumed the post of music director just last July, and he is set to lead the orchestra for five seasons. Aside from his duties for the Hawai’i Symphony Orchestra, Lam also acts as principal conductor and artistic director of the X’ian Symphony Orchestra. His exemplary work and achievements have made him one of the strongest contenders for being named as music director. Lam, born in Australia, was the first conductor from Queensland Opera to be honored with an official position after being assigned as the Associate Music Director and Resident Conductor in 2020.

The Hawai’i Symphony Orchestra is one of America’s oldest music ensembles. Having emerged in 1900 as the Honolulu Symphony Orchestra, they have gone through numerous transformations before finally being established as the Hawai’i Symphony Orchestra. For decades, various talented leaders have led the orchestra and created some of the most memorable seasons. In 2014, the symphony launched its popular series, musicthatPOPS, which featured music from Broadway, Disney, Zelda, Cirque de la Symphonie, and more.

On Saturday, 5th August 2023, Dane’s Ultimate Season Mix-Tape will light up the Waikiki Shell in Honolulu, Hawaii. The amphitheater is located on vast property that can accommodate up to 8,000 fans. The venue is also equipped with 2,400 seats plus a lawn area that can contain 6,000 more guests.
