a brass instrument can sound like a woodwind :D
haha, yes, i found that out yesterday. Well, of course, not totally like a woodwind, but it can be as soft and round like one. I went with the band to Boston Brass concert at NUS yesterday. OMGawd, the brass tone was like chocolate. MOLTEN CHOCOLATE. so RICH. so SOFT. haha, as brown as chocolate! so nice~ i have NEVER heard such nice playing. the ensembles sounded like CDs. so in tune and all! amazing. i wish there were some woodwinds though... T.T i liked hearing the ring, the echo in the hall after the last chord.
haha, anyway, during intermission, me and shimin and some other people (forgot (: ) went to try out the instruments! haha, jupiter instruments had some sort of display of instruments and all! i tried e trumpet, e flute! haha, wanted to try the clarinet but didn't have reeds!! T.T haha, i can play the trumpet :D the flute was quite a failure though. ended up just spitting into the flute. hohoho!
haha, after intermission, went back in, blahblah. nice music. but it was too lullaby-ish. haha, so i fell asleep for like half an hour? haha, whoopsy. but the group that really won the crowd over was obviously the BOSTON BRASS! they were wonderful! they were funny, exiting and had great showmanship! haha, i love their playing. but there were so loud, air capacity was great. i was covering my ears at some points :D it's not bad music just that it was a small confined hall and all.
saw so many people there. saw jodie, and some other people who looked familiar, i THINK i saw them at nco. but i really can't remember. but it was a good concert!
on the way back, and we just gossiped and made a lot of noise on the way back. dawn mocked my laughter. TSK. haha, jkjk.
i'm scared. are you?
