Hey A12! I am having a duo recital with a friend, Lanabel Teo (15, RGS).
Here are the basic details:
12 December 2009
Esplanade Recital Studio
$12
7.30pm
Programme (highlights):
- Beethoven: Sonata for Piano and Cello in F major, Op.5 No.1
- Vitali: Chaconne in G minor
- Handel-Halvorsen: Passacaglia – Duo for Violin and Cello
The flyer images are attached below :)
“A Journey through the tube” is a classical music concert which features me playing the cello and Lanabel on the violin. The concert is titled as such because we are donating all proceeds to a foundation called Very Special Arts (VSA) Singapore, which aids disabled children through encouraging them to take up an art skill.
A “tube” is formed when the crest (or lip) of a breaking wave curls over and around a surfer, creating an open area within the wave through which the surfer can navigate. Making it through the tube is the epitome, pinnacle, all-time golden moment in surfing. In this scenario, the surfer represents disabled children, and the wave represents our society.
The light at the end of the tube would be akin to the light at the end of a long tunnel, and making it through the tube represents disabled children's desires to overcome their obstacles and achieve their dreams.
Though difficult, the journey through the tube is unbelievably beautiful, and is something that the surfer would always remember. We hope that society will prove to be a supporting wave, and help our surfers reach the end of their tube and provide them with a wonderful journey they would always be grateful for.
With this, please be generous in supporting our musical project, which is supported by the Youth ChangeMakers Grant from the National Youth Council, as well as the Singapore National Youth Orchestra.
