 Posted: Wed Nov 02, 2005 10:45 am Post subject: ANIF 05 music quality of the orchestra and conductor |
 |
|
Hello everyone, this is my first post ever! I missed out on the concert! Can someone please tell me about the orchestra and the conductor? How big is the orchestra? Many instruments? Who is Philip Chu? Is he any good?
Sorry to be so ignorant, but I've never been to a classical concert before... |

haha roughly around 100 musicians which includes the chore
it was quit big..i believe the venue had a capacity of a possible 1000+...definitely 1000 plus...
about 80% of it was filled
the conductor did a brilliant job

True True...he made things hilarious when there were technical faults, it was also amusing how hiro played the little "Game over" theme music of mario =P
That was one of the funniest things to see =]

lol
i dont think if the dvds would show you, or it'll get edited out
well, there was one technical fault they had with the drummer, phill turned around to the audience and said "sorry we seem to have some technical difficulty"
everyone seem amazed, and wasnt disappointed at all, the atmosphere seem that way to me, and i think a lot of the people on the forums expressed the same view
anyway thats just ONE of the few funny things that happened that night
i wont spoil anymore =P

like i said on one of the other threads... i don't think the audience was disappointed because he made it humorous and said it in a relaxed kind of way... =]
he also had to tie his shoelace before one of the pieces... LOL ^^ |

really.... he was so relaxed, unlike some other concert where (not eminence) the conductor are always one heck of a cranky guy always get ticked off for every little thing that happened, and would have panicked when things do not go their way

i think that's the special thing about eminence, how everything is so relaxed and not stiffly professional [ sorry, i have no idea how to say it.. XD ] |

you have to remember that girls get married MUCH earlier than guys
guys tend to get married around late 20s, close to early 30s,
girls get married...depends...after they graduate, 21-ish, mid 20s, or some marry late 20s
thats not including what they're like, im just talking all general at what ive seen
hell, some married at 16 O_O;;;

ok, lets not side track from the topic *cough*
