Alvin Wong

Alvin Wong is a fortunate young musician who has embarked on a musical journey across three continents. He has won prizes, including the Phillip Crawshaw Memorial Prize in Royal Over-seas League Competition (UK), Illinois MTNA Young Artist Woodwind Competition and the Evanston Music Club and North Shore Musicians Club Competitions in the USA. He is also one of the very few Hongkongers to have appeared in prestigious competitions like the Adolphe Sax International Competition and the Andorra International Saxophone Competition.
Having performed in more than ten countries across three continents, Alvin has a diverse performance portfolio spanning solo, ensemble, and orchestral work, as well as traditional and contemporary music. He has been a recital performer in England with thoughtful programmes that continues to entertain the public. In his native Hong Kong, Alvin is an active and in-demand saxophonist who organizes and participates in public events during his annual summer visits. These include solo recitals, solo engagements with the Hong Kong Youth Saxophone Choir, and saxophone orchestra concerts, all of which have been well received by local audiences and the saxophone community.
Alvin’s ensemble experience began in his earlier years. In 2018, he was selected through audition to join the Asian Youth Orchestra, which awarded him a fully sponsored performance tour, giving 16 concerts in 11 Asian cities as an orchestral saxophonist.
In addition to performing, Alvin is also an arranger and composer. His composition was selected as a finalist in the New Generation 2019 competition and was premiered and broadcast on RTHK4, Hong Kong’s classical music radio station.
Alvin has previously received education in Hong Kong, the US and Belgium. Alvin has since relocated to the UK, his fourth country, where he continues his musical journey.
