He was raised in Willowdale, Toronto which is a middle-income area of the city of Toronto, Ontario, Canada, located in the district of North York. He attended Kenollie Public School in Port Credit, Mississauga, Steelesview Public School, Zion Heights Junior High School, then North Toronto Collegiate Institute in grade 9, and attended A.Y. Jackson Secondary School in Toronto for the rest of his high school years before being chosen at the 2006 S.M. Entertainment Global Audition in Toronto, Ontario. Only 2 people, including Henry, out of 3000 were recruited through the audition. He briefly attended University of Toronto (Music Performance Major) in 2007. Henry's areas of expertise lie in violin, piano, popping, drum, latin dance, ballet, beat box, rap, song-writing, composing music, acting, guitar playing and singing. Lau started to learn to play the piano from his mother at the age of 5 and also learned to play the violin at the age of 6.〔 He later learned to play the electric violin in 2005.〔 Additionally, he learned a unique form of dancing called boogaloo popping while in high school. After only one year of dancing, Lau was competing in dance (popping) competitions and shows. Henry has gained many performance awards, such as the Canadian Royal Conservatory of Music (RCM) Regional Gold Medal (formerly known as the Silver Medal) for Level 10 Violin.〔 He has also completed RCM Level 10 Piano. Lau said he had planned to become a professional violinist, but never expected to become an idol star before being selected by S.M. Entertainment in 2006.〔 and also said that he chose to join S.M. because if he turned to be a classical musician, he wouldn't be able to sing, dance, play the piano, and play the violin all together. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Henry Lau」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
