Cello Concerto



Candid shot 1
Candid shot 2
I enjoyed myself watching Alban Gerhardt playing and he was really plunged in the pieces, and of course he looked dashing...

Nevertheless, i wondering why the entire MPO players were practising and preparing their instruments just in front of us?? Looked quite anarchy and unprofessional although the concerto hasn't started yet. Some players even chatting and playing with their cell phones... Hello i thought orchestra must be highly solemn and reverent?

In a word, the concerto was marvellous and worth watching.

Conversation of 2 old uncle men:
A: What do we call the instrument ah? Is it big violin?

B: No no no, we call it double bass.

A: Oh i see.

I was like hahaha, the 2 were very in and they chatted mainly about music during the concerto.

Haha. Hey Nicole. LOl. the orchestra practicing and preparing their instrument or chatting infront of the audience before the pieces start, is VERY normal. Every single orchestra does that. LOL. =)
