Experience classical music at its most... delicious?!

McDull, an innocent kindergartener piggy and a local cartoon icon, is brought to the concert hall by his mother in hopes of bringing her child up to be the society’s successful and cultured elite. McDull is not sure how much smarter the music is immediately making him, but he can certainly feel how much it is reminding him of the scrumptious, hearty food of good old Hong Kong cafés... and off he drifts to a fantastical world where he and his friends devour great music, dish after dish!

On the menu is Saint-Saëns’ The Carnival of the Animals, Mozart’s Piano Concerto No 26, Beethoven’s “Pastoral” Symphony... Join McDull at this Café Carnival à la Hong Kong for the great many benefits music brings—but none greater than the simple joy and boundless imagination it unlocks.
