About HanZone Productions
Introduction of HanZone

HanZone Productions was launched in 2007 by classical musicians (and music lovers!) as a voluntary organization with a three-pronged mission to:
  • Empower Musicians
    We provide serious performance venues for professionally-trained, classical musicians to continue to hone their skills and gain broader exposure.  We particularly focus upon working with classical musicians with full-time, non-music related day jobs.

  • Empower Charities
    We provide turnkey-professional concerts in a concise, accessible format in a relaxed atmosphere.  We donate four concerts a year, where all proceeds go to a designated charity.  Our musicians also can be retained on a fee basis for other occasions.

  • Inspire Audiences
    We believe that music has a priceless capacity to heal hearts, comfort souls, and enrich our lives.  By combining music and philanthropy, our goal is not only to inspire our audiences culturally, but to also inspire them to think more broadly about their own potential to contribute to their communities.
We welcome the support and participation from musicians, music-lovers, and community organizations.  We look forward to hearing from you!

Sincerely,

Hon-Cheong Chan
Founder, Executive Director 

Stephen Kiosk
Associate Executive Director
