Composers
Harry Ore (1885-1972) was a composer and pianist of Lithuanian descent born in St Petersburg and lived in Southeast Asia from the 1920s until his death in Hong Kong. He studied composition at the St Petersburg Conservatory. An avid traveller, Ore lived in countless different places including Harbin, Shanghai, Hong Kong, Malaysia, Singapore, the Philippines, Canton and Macao. While living in Hong Kong, he visited Macao and Canton regularly to teach and give recitals. Later, during the Japanese occupation of Hong Kong (December 1941-August 1945), Ore chose to live in Macao where he wrote some of his works for piano.
Fr Áureo Castro (1917-1993), born on the island of Pico in the Azores, came to Macao at the age of 14 to attend the St Joseph Seminary where he received his early musical training, and was ordained in 1943. Except for 7 years of composition studies at the Lisbon National Conservatory of Music (1951-1958), he remained in Macao, dedicating his life to the church and the promotion of music. In 1959 he created the Grupo Coral Polifónico and founded the Academia de Música S. Pio X in 1962, remaining its Director until his death. He was the key figure in promoting concerts and music activities in Macao from the 1960s to the 1980s, including the founding of the Macau Chamber Orchestra in 1983, (forerunner of today’s Macao Orchestra). Fr Áureo was awarded the Medal of Cultural Merit in 1990.
Doming Lam, winner of two Gold Seal Awards for the Best Serious Music, was born in Macao in 1926. He studied music in Canada and the United States and is acknowledged as the pioneer to lead Hong Kong into the music circles of the world. During 1964-1994 he worked in Hong Kong and Macau, contributing extensively in the areas of composing, conducting, teaching, and producing music programmes for radio and television. Maestro Lam’s music has been performed over 40 cities around the world. The 2001 New Grove Dictionary of Music and Musicians includes a detailed biography on Maestro Lam. The music library in the University of Hong Kong holds a collection of his entire musical output.
