I’m Dominic Wong.

I was born in Kwong Wah Hospital in the 1970s.

As a child, I studied at Hong Kong Szeto Clan’s Association primary school.

My father thought I wasn’t a good student, so he told me to change to an English primary school.

However, my grades got even worse because I really didn’t understand what the teachers were talking about.

I worked as a lifeguard and earned HK$40,000 over the summer holidays after the HKCEE!

In the end, I spent every last penny partying in Lan Kwai Fong, hopping from club to club for four months. My mother kept calling me every night.

Eventually, I got pneumonia.

My dream now is to be a composer.

“tàːi pōu” Chamber Philharmonic Orchestra will soon perform my latest work, Luck-quacka, in the Studio Theatre, Hong Kong Cultural Centre.

I can’t wait to see you all there!

I’m Dominic Wong.

In the preface, I mentioned that my father moved me to an English primary school.

That meant my lessons were all in English.

And although I couldn’t understand a word, I still studied hard.

Today, I’m going to talk about Tchaikovsky’s The Nutcracker in which the main character talks about a toy soldier…

“Luck-quac-ka” ? Is it written like this? “Luck”, “Quac”, “Ka”, I know what this story is all about. It’s about a soldier who has a broken arm and who crashes into a wall so it cracks open. That made the soldier laugh, which sounded like “kaa-kaa-kaa”～

You see, I have been cultivating my imagination and my dreams of being a composer since childhood.

I’m Dominic Wong.

I used my extraordinary imagination and skills,

To make this Luck-quacka, my Nutcracker toy. It was as easy as pie.

He looks nothing like me. He’s not too handsome, and I don’t have two lines of golden buttons on my shirt…

His head is so big, as if it is full of countless stories!

Although he is an old man with white hair and a beard,

He is skilled in martial arts and looks awesome with a sword ~~

Oh, I used too much strength and now the arm has broken!

I’m Dominic Wong.

I have recently been working on my Single – Luck-quacka,

While I was composing,

I saw all the notes on the staff become human!

There was a Buddha-like uncle with a bald head

See this and drink water, handsome guy

A magical superwoman

And also some children singing “The Tuen Ma Line has been opened to traffic, I feel very excited~”

When the music starts, they dance together~

They remind me of my old friends…

That’s all for today. If you want to hear more of my muttering, remember to C|L|S!

I’m Dominic Wong.

While I was rehearsing my single – Luck-quacka.

Someone told me about  a hipster who played my single at Tai Po Arts Centre all the time.

The main point of this was that there was a rumour that he was more handsome than me so I went to take a look at him to check because I couldn’t believe it.

I was blown away by his extraordinary temperament and piano melodies!

Knowing a person through their reputation just doesn’t compare to meeting them in person. So, I cordially invited him to be my guest in Luck-quacka to give you all a glimpse of him.

See you all this weekend at the Studio Theatre in Hong Kong Cultural Centre~
