Free concert at Botanical Gardens (28 Aug '10)




After a nice late lunch at Plaza Sing, decided to head over to Botanical Gardens for a stroll. It was hot, sunny, humid but breezy. :p As i neared the Shaw Foundation Symphony area, my ears caught the whiffs of a band going through rehearsal.

My interest piqued, I went over to 'kay poh kay poh' (家婆家婆). It turns out Crescent Girl's School was giving a public performance. I sat there for 1 hours plus listening to their whole repertoire.

They were okay in their playing, given the weather conditions. Plus there was some problems with the audio mike equipment. The female conductor of the band was pretty 'wooden' in her conducting; the male conductor put a little bit more flair and energy. The final piece on Wondergirls "Nobody"was a bit weird though. Too bad my camera battery life ran out, if not could have captured a video on that piece :p~
