WOW, WOW, WOW, WOW! what can i say about the easter celebration concert at St Andrew's Cathedral on 23rd March 2008!?!?!?!
It was awesome! It was breathe-taking and it was magnificent! It was also inspiring and elegant........
Conductor, Guitarist and Harpist Alvaro Sanchez is from France and he came all the way from Europe to Singapore to perform with the orchestra of gifted musicians. I must say that they all performed beyond perfect. I guess i said that becos of the nice warm ambience and with God's presence i guess. It's magnificant!
The pieces below are what the orchestra as well as Alvaro performed. Btw, i would like to admit that i like his flamenco guitar and his soloist part!
1. Concert in D major by Vivaldi
- Allegro 1st movement
