Tips and Bits of Myself

To put a nice ending to year 2009 and make a nice beginning in the year 2010, I’ve recently went to watch a philharmonic performance recently. As anticipated, Sir Ludwig van Beethoven’s pieces. Of course, that includes Symphony No.9. It sounded so beautifully in the 1st act. When the 2nd act begins, I was kinda stunted as I don’t see any members of the choir on the stage. The choir and the vocalists are supposed to stand in their place with the musicians before the 2nd act starts. For Symphony No.9, the choir is very important as during that time, I mean during Sir Beethoven composed it, it was crucial as it took him more than 10 years to compose that song while he was deaf, thinking how he could fusion between classical music and choir performance together. It was kinda worrying for the conductor in my eyes as Symphony No.9 without a choir is a “revolutionary” in arts, so revolutionary that once words gone out, it that would be the end of the musician’s political life (or the maestro I should say). The philharmonic’s performance still continued, but when it comes to the 4th movement, yet still no sounds of the choir. Suddenly, both of the doors beside the stage opened and the vocalist and choir walked into the stage while singing and walked into their place like angels, gracefully and neatly. Of course the vocalist as usually stands beside the conductor’s podium. A part that made worried people felt so touch and inspired, beautifully and inspiring. New and creative approach. They let them miss one small genre of it but they compensate it with a tremendous effect. It’s just like hope and stars walked into our life while people are in despaired and sorrow. One of the best philharmonic concerts that I’ve anticipated. 跳出框框，同样的东西，只是换个方式，就能让人有意想不到的惊喜。。。。
