solitude.in.music: Intense Lyricism
http://solitudeinmusic.blogspot.com/2008/01/intense-lyricism.html
Thursday, January 24, 2008. Having to acquaint myself with Mahler's colossal Symphony No. 3. Besides a decadent indulgence in Mahler today, I got to listen to a couple of my favourite works later in the evening in a most insightful masterclass by Keng Yuen Tseng, the Yong Siew Toh Chair in Violin at the Peabody Institute of the John Hopkins University. He is no doubt a most passionate mentor who goes the extra mile just to draw out the best out of the students. The insightful advice by Keng Yuen Tseng di...

solitude.in.music: Between Wagner & Tango
http://solitudeinmusic.blogspot.com/2008/03/between-wagner-tango.html
Monday, March 03, 2008. Between Wagner and Tango. I had my recess week last week. Had intended to sit through a listening of a Wagner opera last week, but apparently, I was too distracted by tango to sit quietly in my room for just that couple of hours. A bad substitute in terms of musical depth, but surprisingly, I enjoyed myself as much as I would have if I had studied Wagner, or maybe even more. I'm feeling a little hungry for some Wagner right now though. Seu desgraçado filhode uma puta, ,.

solitude.in.music: A Strangest Experience
http://solitudeinmusic.blogspot.com/2007/11/strangest-experience.html
Sunday, November 25, 2007. I apologise for the long hiatus! Thanks to Janice's comment, which reminded me that I still have this blog! There'll be an upcoming International Guitar Festival held locally in Singapore early next month and the updates should come as I'll attempt to review the performances and progress of the festival. And of course, the improvisation streak didn't stop there. Since I had a couple of arrangements of pop songs and tracks from famous musicals later on (what kitsch! Them up a li...

solitude.in.music: Performance Afterthoughts
http://solitudeinmusic.blogspot.com/2007/08/performance-afterthoughts.html
Sunday, August 26, 2007. It has been a hectic week preparing for this performance. Not a traditional classical music setting, but playing live music for storytelling. In fact, it was the first time I was playing for a storytelling performance, and at the same time, premiering a composer's new work with a strange mix of instruments comprising of the piano, oboe and guitar. I'm honoured to be working with the composer Kah. And the storytellers for the opening two days. The Arts House Entrance. Here's a sna...
