it's DURIAN season!!
St. Patrick's concert. 20th March 7:30pm Esplanade Concert Hall..Tickets can be purchased at SISTIC counters. Thank you.
Ya. In case you REALLY go to any SISTIC outlets or website, please. READ AGAIN. The concert was YESTERDAY. HA! Anyway...the concert was rather nice...for those who want to know the repertoire,
1. Exultate
2. La Forze Del Destino
3. Noah's Ark
4. Dakota
5. Capacabana
6. Black Magic Woman
Then came the intermission. I was sitting beside this Malay lady...who had a son in the eupho section. She was super friendly la...tell me her son don't like to smile, look very serious, make him smile also very difficult. Tell me his photo in the program booklet so ugly...point out to me that he looks rather chinese in real life. Quite nice la the lady.
Then the St. Stephan's band played. They are like so CUTE la. So SMALL. Everybody went o.O when they saw. They played tempest and this other song.
I don't know if Daryl chose my seat or something, but it was quite a GOOD seat. As in, 4th row from the front, right smack in the center. Which meant that I could see the conductors' every twitch, and hear all the tiny squeaks and see the players squinting at each other. Quite interesting.
In front of me, you won't believe this, was about the WHOLE of Damai Sec band. I could see the students TRYING to record the performance la. Until the usher, "EXCUSE ME. NO recording of any sort or photography in the hall PLEASE." Then you see the guy's face, like 'OOPS'. Hahaha...somemore can see their mouths hanging open when they saw the clarinets running their notes in Exultate la. WHooo...
I like Pirates!!! SMU played and now SPS. When will it be MY TURN?! I don't think i'll EVER get to play it. ='(
7:46 PM
;and the DODO has the final say.
