Okie.. finished snapping photos of the flyer of the Jazz Concert.. yup yup.. haha.. well.. can update about it now.. here's some summarized details about the concert:
Title: Youth Jazz Orchestra North Rhine Westphalia Performance
Venue: KBU International College
Date: 6th April, 2007
Time: 2000 hours
The stage before the performance starts..
we waited for the INTEC bus at the bus stop in front of Akasia College. haiz.. because the malays came down too late we havta wait for the bus (the driver sent some students to INTEC 1st =.=¿) for kinda long time.. then some more got buses from other UiTMs all around Malaysia here.. so the road was like crowded.. you know, buses ARE big rite? haiz.. they came dunno for wad de.. maybe for the sajak or syair competition.. dunno le..
on the way I was sleepy ( cuz b4 tat played badminton with XY n Pau), but i knew that our bus did not move much (thank you, traffic congestion!).. so we arrived there late. Late as in we arrived there at around 1955 hours. Suppose there would be something like ,,Stammtisch" (Forum/ Discussion in German) for us but somehow canceled ady.. or mayb we arrived late.. haha.. dunno le.. then just went in and seated for the performance la.
the performance started at 2030 hours and the performers consists of 20 instrument players and 2 singers conducted by 2 conductors. The instruments played include piano, keyboard, bass, drums, electric guitar, trumpets, saxophones. The saxophones and trumpets had more details in classification but I dunno their names la.. just know only the general names. They played very well eh, really.. These are the songs that they played (not in order):
- Black Nile
- Cantaloupe island
- Monk bunk and Vice Versa
- Bye Bye Blackbird
- Groovin' High
- Going Home
- Black Power
- Hurtig
- Morello
- Besame Mucho
- Pep Talk (+ singer)
- Goodbye Porkpie Hat (+ singer)
- Footprints ( + 2 singers)
There were intermission between the performance so tat the Datuk-datuk, Datin-datin, Tan Sri-tan Sri, Puan sri-puan Sri, Yang Berbahagia and other VIP (tat was how they were named!) could have some refreshments.
They played very very well. There are times when one of them stood forward and solo a part of the songs.. nice! haha.. amazing was, tat they performed malay song, Rasa Sayang.. wow! too bad did not record down. Oh ya, speaking of which, there are rules stated below in the flyer: The audience is urged not to take any pictures during the performance. So I did not take any. Haha.. those that I posted up were made silently.. haha.. At the last song most of the audience stood up and clapped hands.. The scene was wow! very touching (exaggerated, but well it almost like tat).. something like tat..
They were in red T-shirt because KBU gave them (the T-shirt) as token of appreciation..
So the orchestra performance ended at around 2330 hours. we reached back to hostel at around 0030 hours. Yea, enjoyed the show. Then we went to have our supper ( I was damn hungry).. came back found that the internet still down, and slept =)
