oh gosh here's part one of my back to back concerts series

seating on an unfamiliar Circle 2 setting i ended up seeing alot of J2s there...though i couldn't see who the performers are...reception was lukewarm anyway and i smiled through the narrow leg room...that's something only stall seats provide

if that is so it wasn't the 165 mins i expected...

Vesuvius by Frank Ticheli-AC had a more shrill version.we all used more percussion

LOTR-skip

Phanton of the Opera-the Principal's favourite...seemed more jazzy than RJ's one

Hidamari by Murashita Kouzou-i remember one of the J-pop songs but i dun noe the name.quite a fast good one

Omens of Love-some 8 yr old boi-boi composed it...funny sial...but at least it's a light hearted un-trou-normand for the heavy stuff ahead

Pirates of the Carribbean-compared to the RJ version it has quite more gusto

CO

Shan Chun de Jie Mu (village festival,according to a very crude interpretation)-joyous,village fare which preludes the more grander stuff

Jiang Jun Ling-they play it at operas alot of the time.classic that needs nil introduction whatsoever unless you lived in a well.very nice and strong

Lan Hua Hua's diary(even more vague term)-tragic?not quite,but more feminine and softer.kudos for the erhu soloist

Qin,terra,cotta(even more bastardized interpretation)-1st part magnificent,2nd part chilling,3rd part very sad...muz haf been too hawkish

Double Bill

legends of the condor heroes theme(i dunno which one.better say it in chinese,which is she diao ying xiong zhuan)-tvb drama serials and i'm stumped.good effort though

long de chuan ren-double play,double the fun

i particularly like the hippie hairstyle of the CO conductor though i hate ending a concert without encores
