third street music school had a two orchestra concert today at noon. sinfonia, the orchestra chanda plays with, performed four pieces: sonata for strings (william hofeldt), arrival of the queen of sheba (george frederic handel), lion city (soon hee newbold), and lady gaga fugue (giovanni dettori). below is an excerpt from lion city (referring to the city of singapore).their next concert is in april with third street's philharmonia in the church across the street.
after the concert we had tea at veniero's. we had an hour and a half until music hour, at which she would play a gavotte by bach.
chanda had a lobster tail, and i had a rainbow cookie and pignoli cookie.
on the way home, we passed some snowdrops. it's been so warm, they're already quite big.
I have never heard of a Lady Gaga fugue. How was that? Your snowdrops do look big, almost as if they are about to wilt.
ReplyDeleteoh, it's good! i'll have chanda play a part of it tomorrow and post it. morgana was interested in hearing it also. i laughed about the snowdrops wilting . . it's been a steady upper 40s around here, with every few days 56 or 57. it makes sense that they would be wilting!!
ReplyDeleteOh, yes, please, that would be interesting.
