Malaysian Youth Music Festival 2008

onFinally, the choir journey in TAR college reaches its climax and ended.

On 23/8, the choir (who like all choirs i've been in, going through ups and downs, highs and lows) finally made it to the Malaysian Youth Music Festival 2008 in Marriot Putrajaya, 101 Resort Putrajaya.

10.00am- Dancing room
The dancing room we've practiced in. Though its always messy and cramped, at least there's a place for us to hang out, and polish vanity. (cause there's mirrors everywhere)

11.00am- The School Bus

Why???of all busess?

Choiry choired choirer choir people

Tarzan was camwhoring with my camera all through the journey but too bad, i don't see them around here :0

*The Choir*


12.00pm-Marriot Putrajaya


Never knew the venue would be so grant. pictures taken are just one part of the whole majestic palace. ok its a hotel.


All sorts of music competition was going on, strings, piano recitals, jazz, vocal. Choir was just one of the categories. Basically you can just bump into any rooms (with grumpy faces looking at you) and watch how great music can be.

1.00pm- Preparation

Teng Hui, the favoured potential-to-be president :)

Si Mei Foong, Si andrew and Si jonathan. Andrew's the Choir Manager hired from The Philippines XD

"cepat cepat"

Azhar our fashion designer, make-up artist, and hair stylist, check out our outfit, he's the man behind the masterpiece.

2.00pm- ShowTime

Ms. Ang, our teacher aka conductor, and the lovely Ms. Ler. Thanks for always being there for the choir.

The Respectable Tenors and Bass (not)

Na, Philipino, here's your photo :p

Smile

and the show begins

The first choir was a bit of a shocker because the title of the day was Malaysian YOUTH Music Festival and yea they really do look "young".I enjoyed them, bringing "Gan Lan Shu" as their first song and "Over The Top" (if not mistaken) as their second. Both harmoniously done. Great!


Then came TAR COLLEGE CHOIR, bringing you the famous local song "Rasa Sayang" and the enormous pieces of Andrew Llyod Webber--"Medley of Phantom of The Opera"


*drumrolls..



"Rasa Sayang he rasa sayang sayang heee"

" bong yang heeeeh, bong yang bong yang heeeeeeh"

We did not sang with that sad look for rasa sayang so don't get me wrong.

"Sing OOONnncee again with me..."

On my opinion, we did a fine job. The outfit was nice, ( credits to Azhar but we did it till 3 in the morning too). The singing was nice. The dynamics were not bad.

And the action was entertaining..

Aryton: "Now that was awsome!"
Jo : "Na not really"

So, the results was,,,,,, we got 2nd! Suprise??? haha. I won't crack the secret so let's see whether Jo'll crack it. We were all expecting a 3rd but hey, Praise the Lord really :) 1st went to USCI which consist fully of Music Students. Cool huh?

Testing with flash lighrs, satisfied.

Ah Ming from USCI, the only guy that we got to talk to

Teck Hao + Jie Ern = Happy

Chui yee, posting for a shot.
I need to improve on composing pictures.


Among the very very few picture of the WHOLE TRIP that i'm in. People were just busying asking me to take pictures till they forgot bout me. But its ok. haha.

Meanwhile, while everyone is busy taming vanity, i went around to explore.
