Church Camp 2007 - Genting

I see the bright.
Today is my last day of piano lesson. I practiced the simplified version of Moonlight Sonata movt1. There are so many things i did not see in this music when i first sight read it on my own, I was thinking... How can this be Grade2 when it is simpler than the Grade1 minuet? What i did not expect is the depth to this music. So many new thing i learn from it, technically and musically.
Technical part is the pedal and my finger control for "piano"(soft). Musical part, just too beautifully sorrow i cannot describe. I really thank my teacher Pei Li for pointing out so many beautiful things i overlooked.
I am going to give my fingers a little INTENSIVE "relaxed workout" this holiday. Oxymoron! Haha!
Drummers beware, if ever you were to consider picking up piano (not literally) your middle fingers will be extra !ACCENTED! not the thumb. And in the really beginning, you will realise your last 3fingers are so united they go everywhere STICKING TOGETHER. And tiempo(tempo) is in your head but not on your fingers. Fingers can be real REBELLIOUS! Elim was shaking my wrist to check out my hand. She said it is better than when i was in army. My one and only goal in this holiday is to relax my pinky fingers.
And if a Piano player wanna pick up guitar, Classical guitar is the only choice, Fret whole day(proper fretting) on the guitar and there is no hardening of finger tips at all, just as tender as new. Haha! Like freshly toasted bread.
And i realise never learn so many instruments if age is catching up. You will not be really good at any of them. Thats what happen to me. But i can't help it, my fascination just brings me to wanna know how to play them. I will not fail to Thank God for making me so delicate fingers.
I realise something recently. I love Movie Musicals!
I watched a few movie musicals this year and all of them caught my heart! Leaving a Deep Impression.
1) West Side Story
2) Sound of Music
3) Marry Poppins
4) Moulin Rouge
There is this "Enchanted" I am sure going to catch. Sounds something like Marry poppins where Disney cartoon and Real life combine. But i am sure the latter will be more 'real'! I am not going to miss it!
Holidays are here!
