musical activities

here are some of my recent musical activities. when i mentioned 'my' musical activities, i wasn't involved in the production. i'm obviously the audience since i have no musical talent. like i mentioned before, the only musical i can play is the recorder but that was way back to primary school. i forgot all the notes and how to read them.

as for singing, let just say that i'm only suited in singing while in the bathroom, when i'm alone or during karaoke session with my buddies! my buddies wouldn't mind my 'out of pitch' volume since they were used to it or because they are too polite and kind to mention it to me, hehe..

THE MUSIC OF HARRY POTTER
as shown on the ticket, miss A and i went to the Harry Potter Musical on 12 may 2013 at dewan filharmonik petronas. this time, we went with kak sya's family but our seat were one row apart. overall, the concert was great and satisfying. actually, after the musical, i got another musical event that i plan to go to but...

ASIA SUPER SHOWCASE 2013
the showcase was cancelled and postponed due to the demonstration by the opposition. they were concerned about the safety of our country. this showcase was one week after the general election. i bought this ticket because of shinhwa. the other two acts that were scheduled to perform are girl's generation and ace of angel. the malaysia shinhwa changjo had already sold t-shirts and lightsticks to be used during the showcase.
until now, there is no mention when is the new date, is the casts will remain or the refund method. if shinhwa was not one of the cast, i am sure asking for the refund. the price of the ticket is not cheap!

TEATER NYONYA AND THE GANG
last monday, oleen, miss A and i went to istana budaya to watch 'nyonya and the gang' theater. it was said at the ticket that this theater got two performance instead of one. one is about the nyonya and the one is performed by 'the gang!' the casts for the nyonya theater are mardiana alwi, amy mastura, kiah propa, fara fauzana, misha omar and taiyuddin bakar. it was about the struggle of inheritance.

meanwhile, the gang performance is purely singing and dancing. they mostly touch the topics on health and patriotism. honestly, their performance was mediocre and quite boring. a few audience went back after intermission that is during 'the gang' performed. the nyonya theater is only so-so in my inartistic's eyes.

COPPELIA
on the 6 of july, miss a and i will be going back to istana budaya to watch this ballet performance, coppelia. it's our first ballet show. coppelia concerns an inventor, Dr Coppelius, who has made a life-size dancing doll. It is so lifelike that Franz, a village swain, becomes infatuated with it and sets aside his true heart's desire, Swanhilde. She shows him his folly by dressing as the doll, pretending to make it come to life and ultimately saving him from an untimely end at the hands of the inventor.<~italic since i copied and pasted it from wikipedia.. ;)
