Symphony of Angels

Morning - David went to back to his old house to meet up with his landlord.

10am- Get ready. He came back and brought me to Paddington Market, a place which i'll go whenever I go to Sydney. So, had a waffle, YUM YUM!. Bought an anklet and bag.
Wanted to find stuff for Glenn and Minyu but didn't see anything nice. So sad.....

1 pm - went home, sent Kenneth to the Airport. Won't see him till he come to Singapore to meet David. Then we went to East Garden. Window shopping, went home to rest and nap.

6pm - Work up get ready, make up and went to Sydney Opera House for a concert. This is my 2nd time watching at Opera House. The concert is called the 'Symphony of Angel' They will perform almost every year during Christmas. Like our SSO Christmas concert.

We sat at the very last row. haha cos is full house..

Rather anticipate..... The Program for that nite start from Corelli work to Modern Australia composers' works.

There are few instrumental ones - Corelli, Vivaldi- cello concerto, Bach's - as the sheep safely graze'.

There's few vocal ones- John rutter and australia composer, brahms.

Anyway, the Vivaldi cello concerto is played by the Sydney Symphony Orchestra principal cellist, she is only 26 yrs old. Her cello is from 1672 in Vivaldi period. Her sound is good. Glenn u can too.. Jia You!

The vocal works are performed by the orchestra and the Sydny Children's Choir. I tot how good can it be? But the moment they enter the hall and start singing. They never failed to catch my attention. Their voices in parts are so angelic. Thus, is so appropriate to the title of the concert.
When they sang the two piece by John rutter. I was so touched. I cried...Their voice are amazingly good. Let's hope they will come to singapore one day.

When they sing the finale 'Deck the Halls' they presented their cute and mischeivous side in the song. U can see their enthusiasm in them, in their gesture. U can see few are sick but they still stand in position and sing.

There's a solo soprano, wow her voice is powerful. When she sang 'Ademius', she ended with a powerful high notes. She is so good......wowow.....

I really enjoyed this concert. They actually traveled around let's hope they will come to Singapore.
