HI I'M HIGH
from the concert woohoo(x
ok, so, we arranged to meet at tajong pagar mrt at 6.15pm to have dinner together before walking to SCH. actually, the timing was set that way so that everyone would be there by 6.30pm. the school crowd (me, xinying, clara, sarah) was late anyways and reached there at around 6.40 ._.
we were deciding on where to eat dinner and in the end chose soupspoon coz it was the closest and most convenient. haha my first time! the soup is damn good :3 the bread/sandwich too! it should be renamed to BREADSPOON! O:
anyways, after dinner we walked to SCH and got our tickets from joyce who was already there. and some of our batchmates managed to reserve seat for us so we were seating together in the concert hall yeah! xD
mog the music was so good T.T all the instrus really blend well with each other (the clarinet had the same tone!) so it's like, the music they play moves together as one body, as one band. the two conductors were so professional and funny, haha xD oh, the euphonium duet and the marimba soloist was really good too! LOVED THE MUSIC :D
Satoshi Yagisawa composes awide variety of music including orchestral music, chamber music,and chorus.
His compositions for band that dramatically describe the WorldHeritage Sites and nature are very popular....Satoshi Yagisawa participatesin a wide variety of activities including judging for competitions,
conducting as a guest conductor, instructing, and writing forvarious music magazines.
He is one of the most vigorous young composers in Japan now.
Miura attended the first TUBA International Symposium in 1973.[2] After returning to Japan, he went on to become a euphonium soloist with the Tokyo Kosei Wind Ensemble from 1978 to 2007.[2][3] He founded the Tokyo Bari-Tuba Ensemble and The Euphonium Company, and is the Japanese representative of ITEA, of which he is a founding member and director.[1]Recognizing his role in promoting the euphonium outside of its traditional western environ, and advancing the wind symphony movement, ITEA awarded Miura a lifetime achievement award.[2] He has served as professor of euphonium at Toho Gakuen School of Music, Soai University, Sobi Music Academy, and Kunitachi College of Music,[3] the former Tokyo Conservatory of Music, where he remained on the faculty as of 2011.[1]-from Wikipedia - Toru Miura (musician)
the last encore (conducted by toru miura) was 'JPOP!' (quote him) and when they started playing arashi songs me and xinying got very excited and kept turning to each other whenever we recognised some parts of the melody. devni and sihui, who were sitting between us, were like .___. (jasmine you should have gone!)
after the concert, we joined the long queue to get satoshi yagisawa and toru miura's autographs! hehe, first ever autograph((; and in my opinion, these are more meaningful than all those kpop idols' fanmeet sessions(x
appreciate all the sick people who still dragged themselves for the concert(:
it was really worth it, don't you think(;
breaking the MUSIC.
