My Erhu Idols' Leaving Singapore


25 May 2008, It was the BEST CHINESE MUSIC CONCERT I EVER ATTENDED. It was my Erhu teacher's concert “Musical Ties”at SCO ,featuring his wife and father, who was a famous Huqin (Erhu,Gaohu,Zhonghu) master in HK. To me, My teacher and his father were musical prodigies, or musical maestros. Well, that all adds up to good music just like a few of the pieces such as,"Liquormania",another piece that sounded like Arabian music and a complimentary piece,"Horse Race". Wanna know something? They are Wong Sun Tat(my Shi Fu), Wong On Yuen(my Shi Fu's Shi Fu)and Yu Jia (My Shi Fu's wife). You should see how their fingers move. One of my favourite was “Flight of the Bumble Bee” Teacher Wong Sun Tat and his wife played in HK (seen inYoutube). I have seen many of his concert in Youtube and was motivated each time I see him play.
.
Thing turned into disaster a few days after the concert (i am not referring to the SiChuan incident). When i came back from my Shi Fu's class, it was ok but at the end of the lesson, he told me that he would be leaving Singapore for at least 6 months. (Compo style)I stood rooted to the ground,jaw hanging from my skull, tears welled up in my eyes but they refused to flow out.I was partially in a state of shock.It was fate that brought him to me! I have sometime felt rather tired in my Erhu lessons, and wanted many times to give up. But if it wasn't for "HIM", i wouldn't have gotten a distination at Grade 3 in Erhu. He is a Great Teacher I really want to Thank him for the last 2 years of Erhu teaching. Although he may be fierce, he hides a purpose behind every word he says. THANK YOU TEACHER WONG SUN TAT & Shi Fu's Shi Fu and Shi Mu !!YOU ARE ALL MY IDOLS.........
