Evening Interlude

Speaking from a person who had just come back from Yamaha Music Concert, namely 'Evening Interlude'. This is the very first one-of-its-kind show, presented by Yamaha School branched Malaysia, which is open to public domain, extending the power of musical wonders to commoners like us, like me. And it is rather perspicuous in a couple of ways; the chaos on stage filling the interludes between items, well-dressed performers clad in splendid night gowns dragging the probes, the chairs and the instruments, one of the emcees slightly shaking in her feet, etc.

Anyway, these are no objects if the show is seen from a greater scheme. The show really blew me away in an enchanted blast, with spelled semibreves, crotchets, and quivers filling the air, pampering my ear drum. The locale is really spectacular in its own way, in a way that is beyond words; it happens to take place in Malaysia Tourism Center which is normally teemed with melees of excited foreigners; and now we became part of them, mostly if not totally foreign to the Tiger's Mother's culture.  It is located in KLCC and KL Twin Tower's vicinity, where you can oversee the breathe-taking night scenery of the duos just one step outside the performing hall. My aunt was certainly awestruck by the scenery which is usually less than attractive to the locals, meaning Malaysians, let alone KL citizens.

Heartiest credits to my cousin sister, who is pursuing a musical diploma in Yamaha School and hence performing in the show too, owing this opportunity that comes with free tickets to her. This is the very first enjoyment of grand-sized orchestra performance of my life, though i had been rather spending my entire high-school stint with the school core orchestra members. The stage were good, the settings were good, the lighting were good, the musical tools were good, most importantly, the performers were really really excellent. They certainly did a great job in fascinating us throughout the show, keeping us hooked, and shoving our excitement to the ne plus ultra, smoothly. The juxtaposition of contemporary musics and classic pieces, the multi-tasking of the professional performers, and of course their listlessness in presenting the best of them one item after another. Their love for music was clearly unfolded in the reflexive, subconscious gestures of their arms, their legs and their heads, eyes closed, frenetic fingers on the keys or strings on full gear, silky hair snaking elegantly alongside with the flux as the music went.

A wonderful evening, tinctured with wonderful performances.

And of course, another event of epiphany for me. 

Delighted.
