Week 2

Week 2 of school has passed by.

Studies are still as usual, nothing much different.

Things that are different is my English horn playing.

After 2 weeks of practices, I can play my new reed on the SO English horn, at last. Quite an achievement.

Yesterday went to see Mr. Pan, our tutor. Learned a lot of things, including the right method to play English horn. Of course that doesn't mean my previous method is wrong, just that not good enough.

Watched three concert this week. One at YST conservatory, performed by professors there, one that I would regret if I didn't go. Second concert was on Wednesday, Miniature by Symphony Orchestra. Well, can't compare to the previous concert I watched, but still, better than none. Third concert was yesterday, Evolution by Mus'Art. They played quite some interesting songs, and overall quite good.

There were two people visited me. One is my cousin, coming here because of a wedding dinner. I brought him to attain one of my lectures, and after that went to Orchard Road to shop. The other one is my friend who is studying at Taiwan, came Singapore just because of the flight he took.

And seriously, beside these events, this week is just boring. But still, playing English horn everyday makes me very happy.

I am starting to worry, if the next concert doesn't need English horn, what should I play?
