Catalogued output
Films and moving-image works
These entries are catalogued as moving-image works. The 1970s are the densest part of the run, with 4 titles, and that concentration is a fact about what the registers have catalogued rather than a judgement on the work itself.
7 films carry dates between 1974 and 1984
The run opens with Games Gamblers Play and closes with Aces Go Places 3

Primary material
Recordings and discography
The discography assembled here shows how Hui's work has been published in sound, not what Hui made. 42 sound issues are catalogued, carrying dates from 1971 to 2023. An issue is a published recording, distinct from the composition it carries, from a printed score of that composition and from any single performance of it; none of the entries below is counted in the catalogue of compositions above, and several of them carry the same work in different readings. The 2010s are the densest decade of publication, with 19 issues. The performers and issuing labels are as the discographic register states them; where it names no performer the article names none.
