Kedah Youth Concert '10

Whoohoo~! Concert is finally over! which means no more aching hours of practice (literally, aching neck, shoulders, back...overall I'll feel like an old woman). The concert was held at the Kedah RTM studio on the 20th of March (its over,too bad you missed it *chuckles~). Anyway, here's a program list of the songs we played (requested by Jireh):
♪ Six Country Dances......Beethoven ♪ Tubung Periuk......Unknown (Malay Song) ♪ Clock Music......Joseph Haydn ♪ Fantasy On Greesleeves......Unknown ♪ Kabuki Dance......Richard Meyer ♪ Intrigue......Robert Longfield ~interval~ (Songs sung by guest artist Charis Chua): ♪ Belaian Jiwa......Jay Jay ♪ As I am......Charis Chua ♪ I See You......Charis Chua / Tan Si Ying (Songs played with Penang Symphony Band): ♪ Final Countdown......Joey Tempest ♪ Eye Of The Tiger......F.sullivan Iii and J.peterik ♪ Selections From Tarzan......Phil Collins (Finale with Pessband and Charis Chua): ♪ You Raise Me Up......R. Lovland / B. Graham

By the way, some of you readers may have known that I was busy with the designs of this concert's program booklet, and I think its a little more of wasted effort because the printing and editing shop can't work with the program of my designs so they had to redesign everthing! (so sad~)

Anyway, here's a few comparison of my designs (press the "Ctrl" key and scroll your mouse thingy up to zoom in to read the info):

So which do you prefer? please comment okay? ^^

Oh see what I got from the concert!
This was actually given to me by Yu Kee, the saxophonist soloist from Pessband (fancy having their bouquet! the reason he says is they can't bring it back to Penang, I wonder why) Check out his picture:
Cool right? And he's actually younger than me??? (well, younger by just a year)

So overall the concert was good, I won't say great, but its cool ^^ God bless all musicians!

  1. ur cover is black and white, which is quite ok...oni the K Y C for the kedah youth concert...may be bit harder to read...the outcome looks like a piano exam book...LOL...
    d biodata...i'd agree with the outcome...easier to read...BUT, i like ur background which the outcome doesn hav...
    for charis biodata...outcome pic is nicer lo...
    i think overall is the brown scale of the outcome that makes it look bit more nicer??
