2010/07 When The Summer’Singers meet The King’s Singers

Posted in Outings on July 13, 2010 by The Summer'Singers

King’s Singers has always been an inspiration to us, be it their voice projection, vocal harmony, song interpretation or the stage performance….. it is just unbelievably good. If you asked us how many times we’ve seen them, we’d say…. MANY TIMES!!!! From the videos obviously! lol.

Well, since our establishment, we’ve never thought we’d had the chance to experience the premier league performing live! When we were told “K’s is gonna perform in KLCC DPO”, we were just overwhelmed and blessed that finally the moment to meet K’s is here….. Irregardless the price of the ticket, even if it means we had to skip lunch and dinner to save the money for the ticket, we’d do it! After months of waiting anxiously for D-day…. Finally it has arrived….. and here we are….. sitting in a stunning hall, watching the top A Cappella group performing live!!!

The voices of the six man filled the beautiful classy hall with sense of satisfaction….stage light from above was just like angels guarding above… The humorous introductory and playful interpretation of songs like clic,clac, dansez sabots and Dance to thy daddy made everyone burst into laughters, and there were also moments of tears when songs like Danny boy, Yesterday was performed… the whole performance was just flawless and splendid….

Hope will never die as long as you don’t stop chasing your dreams…..someday… we’ll be there…..

….. never thought we’d see K’s, and never thought we get to be so close in proximity….. flashes everywhere, capturing every moment of our singers’ excitement….. so much so that you can only see their teeth instead of their eyes! :D

That’s what i meant….. check out cindy!!!! where’s her eyes???? Guess her excitement is just written all over her face….well she said she won’t wash her hands at least for a day….. hahaha

Yes, we want all the CDs to be signed and we’re gonna frame it!! so please please please…. sign ALLLLLLL….

And finally…… when co director of K’s meets the music director of The Summer’Singers….. Baritone Stephen and Soprano Quan…..

Sweetest moments ever! Bet these girls wont be able to fall asleep! :)

And finally……the night ended with a group photo….. missing Timothy though :( …..
This…..is what happens when The Summer’Singers meet The King’s Singers…..

All in all we had an extravaganza night….Hope to see you soon……

 【团员舜懿报道】7月31日是我加入Summer’ Singers 的第一次到外坡演出,而表演的地方就是——沙巴!!时间过得很快,前往沙巴的3个小时就这样过去了。

                                       DSC03893                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          到达沙巴之后,我们就去check in屋子,其实这屋子有一股复古的味道,很舒服的家!因为刚下飞机,所以大家先在屋子里看DVD回忆我们的音乐会。大家一边笑、一边看、一边分析,欢乐的时光总是过得快!

欢乐不一定需要玩闹,有时候,大家共聚一起也是一个难得的机会。

连续那么多小时,大家已经精疲力尽了,我们到附近的茶餐厅吃早餐。过后我们再使用科技发达的GPS到沙巴的景点观光。

首先,我们先到阿特金森钟楼!阿特金森钟楼是一幢没有钉子建立的,它是经过第二次世界大战而遗留下来的建筑。

过后再到Waterfront,我们在那里迎接阳光与海滩再配上外国游客的观光,感觉就像身在外国地方。虽然我们去观光,但是一位热爱唱歌的人,加上当时的环境,所以很难抗拒我们的音乐,所以唱起我们的《Under the Sea》!这样可以配合那时候的风景、事物配上一首充满海洋的气息,无与伦比!

今天我们自由行就到此为止!由于时间的紧密,下午的时候,我们该准备彩排了。虽然今天很累,但是我们是清楚知道这次来沙巴的目的,所以大家在台上都抛开疲惫的样子,展现另一风采。

不知不觉,我们的彩排已经到晚上了。到达沙巴后,大家没有吃很多东西,而今天的晚餐被介绍吃海鲜!位于海产丰富的沙巴州县,海产绝对新鲜。可惜今天人数不能齐全,少了我们的君君老师,所以说!共聚一起时一件难得的事情。

海鲜餐大家都吃了,观光景点也去了,但是大家吃饱变怕会演出时不漂亮,所以我们再去Jesselton Point散步。

距离亚庇市中心——石之遥的哲斯顿城(Jesselton Point)。它是一个景观非常迷人及具有非凡历史意义背景的景点。在此之前,它是一个港口和渡轮码头。在过去,它除了一直充当商务货轮停泊及客轮放碇驻留的码头之外,它还是一个铁道火车站,而用心的游客们不难发现在士敏土的铁轨痕迹至今还保留下来。

晚间清凉的气候,没有忘记我们的《夜来香》以及用这一首歌结束第一天的行程!

昨天的观光活动已经结束了,我们今天要全力以赴的练歌,准备我们的演出,今天大家morning call7.30a.m.起床,之后大家都在屋子里练歌。

经过昨天彩排的努力和检讨,我们正式演出来临了。今天8月1日我们在沙巴连同朝阳合唱团、亚庇福建会馆爱乐合唱团、马来西亚留台合唱团及加雅师范学院合唱团参与沈炳光教授之声乐作品演唱会!而我们是和马来西亚留台合唱团一起演唱《处处可开荒》及《心中的玫瑰园》,这两首歌曲。由指导老师—刘国耀老师指挥。由于明天还有一个演出,大家表演结束后,都回家休息,准备明天演出!还有一件事,我们的奂奂长大一岁了!Happy Birthday!!

这次到沙巴的演出,除了参与沈炳光教授之声乐作品演唱会之外,我们指导老师—刘国耀老师在8月2日将与亚庇福建会馆爱乐合唱团分享《六合一系统发声技术法》。同时,我们也准备了大约45分钟的演出。沙巴旅演出,到今天为止,已经结束了。表演结束后,我们到沙巴著名的“神山”,去神山需做大约3小时的车程。 去着的当儿,一路目睹神山的风采。当然我们也有停在半路中享受下就犹如云顶的气候。这次来到神山,除了来玩之外,我们还拍了许多的团体照。而且那么冷的天气,最适合吃火锅,所以到那里附近的餐馆吃火锅!!

 

吃饱回家后,我们在“神山”这里为这两天的演出做个检讨,可以让我们更加清楚问题的存在以方便改善。欢乐的时光总是很快过去,到达“神山”的第二天,我们就马上check out 准备下山。下山前,我们还得去参观沙巴的水果!过后就准备启程会吉隆坡了,把这4 天画上一个完美的句号。
