A trombone jorney

I started to play trombone here in inti, only to find out that there is no french horn for me to be played in Inti Concert Band, I meant French Horn and not E-Flat horn.
And so my adventurous awesome challenging, and yes of course painful journey starts.
As a newbie in trombone, I am not really good, sometimes looks
noob. A fast learner like me demands total improvement, persistence, technique, agility and yadda yadda yadda~~~

The joint concert with
MIB really does improve my playing technique. I learn a lot, but yeah, in a super duper hard way. Started on this May, 3 new pieces each week really kills me, IT IS NOT A BEGINNER PIECE. :(


After many years involvement in school band, this band camp is the scariest band camp for me.
I'm freakin' out of this band camp.

The pic doesn't look so good. I stole it somewhere. Do you see me, playing trombone? Can you Imagine you were playing for the whole day and night after 2 hours of sleep, and you
puasa t0o, isn't that painful? And those ppl really embarrassed us the trombonists when we have to stack up the chair, not one, but two. And my stomach was totally FULL after buka puasa, and I have to blow blow and blow. I don't know what I'm blowing actually. Lots of wrong note, tone ugliness, semua teruk arr!! ( So guys, next time playing 1st trombone after full dine is not a good idea okay!! )

I do buck up ( sacrificing my study time to practice *cry* ). And after one week, here came the concert, A
Caribbean Concert Night. Held at SC auditorium, Mont Kiara. Let the pictures tell the story.




Yeah, trombonists. We rocked the auditorium=D

The concert was a success. Only some minor mistakes, but overall, it was okay, i think. Wanna see some more pic?


That's Mr. Lee, Adele's big idol :p . He conducted with full enthusiasm zest and lively. Oh man he's really good, and cool too.

Some close up snapped by some pro photographer

That's my lame pose, after tiresome band camp. Its blurry~~

Guess what??


Its my trombone. I guess he wears cap, really wanna be look like its owner hoho. This is what I do after the band camp. Its too tiresome that I freak out and went crazy and do all these lame things.

There's more picture, especially the after-the-concert-picture, but I looked really retarded. Its too lame to be shown here :p

The song that we played last night?
Undertheflagofglory,hopetownholiday,amazinggrace,tearsofmoon,postcardfromsingapore,olympics,
