Myriad Of Colours

Instrumental Ensemble Performance.

Firstly, this was held at Singapore Conference Hall. Yes, the very place which we had our SYF judging. And this being the first time we went back to that very place after our SYF, we kept comparing the feelings we had on that very day and now. Thinking back on the places we set our foot on and taking pictures of them. (For example, the waiting area, the pathway out) Definitely relights all the happy moments!

Anyway, the "concert" was great! Well, some hightlights here and there definitely lightened up my mood. :)

Firstly was the Gamelan Ensemble from Siglap.

Following that was the Indian Orchestra from RGS.

Followed by Angklung and Kulintang Ensemble from Millennia Institute!
I really enjoyed their performance! Those smiles on their faces, the swaying to the music. Especially the percussionist who is always seen wearing a smile across his face! Aaahh! Cool xi he!

Handbell Ensemble from SCGS!
Aaaahhh! They had me smiling all the way! Their melody was very very nice! One of the songs they played was Song of the Flowers, which is the Ah Li San De Gu niang.. Mei Ru Shui Ya.. Ah Li San De Shao nian... yah ... nice deh! their coordination and the melodies. Of course the girls too la! They had different Swaying Patterns for the 2 dfferent songs you know! And most of them smiled all the way too! Therefore making their performance such a joy to watch! The way they played the handbell was cool too! To sustain the note, they had to bring their bells further away.. To make a sharp note, they drew it back immediately. The song could not be nice without any one of them! Nice Deh! 5 star performance! I want to video it! Aaahhh!

String Ensemble from NYGS
It was mainly violin I suppose.. But I was looking at the cello girl. Haha! She looks so blur! -_-" But the whole thing sounded very class and extravegant! A bit like our concerto.. perhaps in terms of difficulty.

Guitar Ensemble from TJC
Oh man! Why did they send only half of their guitarists? And the percussionist was disappointing too! Sigh... Rather disappointed. They could not match up to their honours standards. Their half filled ensemble played without an impact like their SYF. Pretty bad I suppose. But they got the honours.

Harmonica Band from Yu Hua Sec
Definitely the school with the most fan base! haha!

Gu Zheng Ensemble from PL
They have a strong ensemble! Haha. I still asked Jun Kit.. how come no guys one.. Then he gave me a very logical answer.. Because the school is PL! Haha! Oh yah! Lol! Quite nice wor! The Gu Zheng. The players played it with style too! Their body movements is coordinated and there were quite a number of parts which requires them to totally freeze what they were doing! Wah seh! Zai!

Overall, none of them seems to be nervous and stuff! All very composed and not nervous! Or were they hiding it? If they were hiding, they did a wonderful job! The smiles concealed all fear and gave us a splendid performance! Cool!

Oh yah! Not forgetting our comical Mr Ng! Quote"...Handbells performance was the best la... Girls... Cute..." Haha! JC1s! What have you done to Mr Ng! Aaahhh!! Kidding*
