hehhh omg syf is in 4 days time! :D i'm really excited omg (: really really hoping very hard for that gold with honours! (: hehe jiayou kayy harmoc i know we can do it! (: i think our playing has improved tremendously since we first started working on the pieces yayy (: and i'm sure on that day itself we will play really really well and wow the judges and the audience (: i know our hard work and long pracs will not go to waste (((:
and yayy i really like pavane haha it sounds so so beautiful (: the flowy melody and everything just sounds so nice and lyrical omg (: i hope we will be able to bring out the beauty of this piece on 30 april! :D
and omggg so exciting haha last fri, miffie's bro came to help us out with prac haha (: and he's really good and really pro and musical omg! :D i quite liked the way we sounded when he was conducting us (: and the way he conducts is so nice too omg it's like he's totally immersed in the music and feeling the music, and the imagery he paints for us is so beautiful ((: it really made pavane more mesmerizing than ever before and i dunno about the rest, but it really made me feel like i was soaring with the music ((: haven't felt this way since like dunno how long ago haha (: i think the last time i got that feeling was when we played canon together last year (: or maybe at the harp concert so long ago when neville didi and i were guestplaying ave maria with a harp ensemble (: so so nice ((: omg and speaking of harps, i really think pavane sounds so much nicer with the harp and the double bass (: especially the harp omg i luv the sound lah it's so angelic and sweet! ((: and it reminds me of my harpist angel barbie doll haha, so pretty and elegant and majestic in an understated kind of way (: haha omg i think i sound like i'm in some weird and strangely poetic/retrospective mood today haha dunno how to describe it also lah haha! (:
and haha all this mad preparation for syf really reminds me very much of strings! (: ahhh i really miss being in strings omg sometimes i wonder to myself if i made the right choice joining harmoc (: haha of course i do believe this was the right choice lah ((: cos the harmoc people are all really really super nice ((: and it's been a really fun and enjoyable and meaningful experience being in harmoc! (:
but sometimes i really do miss strings so so much omg especially recently! i dunno why also omg, but i suddenly keep thinking back to all our previous strings rehearsals and the stringers and our concerts and syf and all the preparations, ms ku, ms khoo and our sian-and-yet-sometimes-quite-amusing sectionals, etc. (: and heh oh yeahh i now have holberg and resphigi and palladio in my mp3! (: hehh it really felt so so nice and nostalgic listening to these pieces omg (: and then i recalled the time we spent sightreading them at first (and going mad with laughter cos we sounded so horrible at first), and then learning it, and polishing it, and then i remembered that spectacular session we had in the tuning room of singapore conference hall before 05 syf! (: i think i remember that the most, because that was the best we ever sounded haha (: hehh i shall go find st paul's suite too haha i remember it was quite nice too (: and i don't remember what we played for syf in 07! omg crapppp ): so i can't go find the sound file even if i wanted to cos i don't remember the title omg crap ):
haha so i shall write the title of the songs harmoc is playing for syf here! (: hehh so that i can always remember which pieces we played haha (: okays we're playing chicken pickin rag by david hellewell and pavane pour une infante defunte by maurice ravel! (: yayy haha (:
and haha yayy ok that's it for now! :D hehh omg actually at this point of time, the only thing i'm concerned about is syf alr! cos it's really so so near omg (: 4 days only leh omg! :D haha omg really hope we can do well and get the gwh! (:
