music lover...
yesterday evening, i went to watch this Fantasies and Confessions concert at Esplanade Concert Hall. The music that SSO played revolves around this theme. SSO played:
1. Fantasia on a Theme by Thomas Tallis by Ralph Vaughan Williams
2. Piano Concerto No.1 in C minor by Shostakovich
3. Night on a Bald Mountain by Mussorgsky
4. The confession of Isobel Gowdie by Macmillan
My favourite is the first piece. It's a chamber work and is very lyrical and solemn piece. i totally love the part where the solo violin, viola and cello played. just go hear it urself...
the cutest piece would be the number 2. the piece is writen to describe a scene in the russian circus. the whole orchestra is imitating the sound, so funny.
the worst piece of the night would be the last piece. it totally sucked. there's no ture to it and it just irritates me. boring
the encore is Greensleeves. yah clap!!! something that i like.
god bless me on writing my mep concert report on this
