Sam Hui Live in Macao @ Venetian – 27 April, 2013
One of the pioneers of Cantopop, Sam Hui will be at The Venetian Macao’s CotaiArena on April 27 for a one-night only performance of Sam Hui Concert Live in Macao 2013. Hui, who is also a songwriter and film actor, is credited with popularising Cantopop by the use of Cantonese jargon and slang in his lyrics to depict various current issues in society as well as to recount love stories. Over the decades, he has contributed a wealth of Cantonese hits to pop culture such as “The Private Eyes,” “Silence is Golden,” “Genius and Idiot” and “Made in Hong Kong,” which remain all-time favourites.

Maria Cordero + Danny Summer New Year Concert @ Venetian Macao’s Venetian Theatre – 7:45pm, 2 March 2013
Two local legends together on stage, a songwriter and guitarist, Danny Summer’s popularity has extended from the 1980s until now. Considered the Father of Hong Kong rock and roll, Summer’s first album Childhood earned him the Most Promising New Artist Award in 1979. Macao-born Maria Cordero joined the Hong Kong music industry in 1987. Her powerful, versatile and original vocal style soon attracted the attention and admiration of the industry. Her career as a recording artist was launched two years later when she was singled out by the well known film director, Lam Ling Tung, to sing the theme song for the movie City On Fire. In 1988, the song “Beam of Friendship,” from Cordero’s debut album, won Hong Kong’s prestigious Top Ten Chinese Gold Songs Award.
