Black and white ivories-those days of practising on them
Listening to Cher's band concert today brought me down memory lane.
There were two pieces that the band played that were also pieces for both my grade 2 and grade 5 piano exams.
The familiarity of the music, every staccato, every crescendo, made me enjoyed it thoroughly, giving me a sense of pride because of the connection i have with both pieces. Ahh.. those days of practising under mrs neo's (my piano teacher) guidance - it was bittersweet. Piano lessons were actually quite nerve-wrecking for me you know! I am afraid to slip on my notes in front of mrs neo.. But at the same time, I enjoyed the praise i got from mrs neo when i played well.
But now, I no longer have the stress for piano exams and it has a positive effect on me. I am able to appreciate even more of the strict discipline for piano practice. Well, this is good.
*MORE GIFTS OF MUSICALITY RAIN DOWN ON ME, O good Almighty Lord! I am playing for sunday service... *breaks into cold sweat* but i'll trust in Him who is the giver of music to hold my fingers when i play.
CNY Reunion
I am going for a buffet.. a buffet, like last year's reunion dinner! YAY! I'm gonna empty their chocolate fountains and drunken prawns. Ya right. Haha. YUMMY!
Anyone?
Hey anyone interested in watching a play? I want to watch a play that's funny and interactive... and affordable.
Or is anyone interested in going for a classical music concert? i wanted to go to vienna boys' choir performance when they came to town last year. But aiya, no time and the ticket is pretty pricey.
Anyone? Ok, no one.
I am going to meet up with my jc friends next week :)
