OTM

OTM= Okestra Tradisional Malaysia.

That's the orchestra I'm currently involved in.

It's some orchestra that's formed by the people of IstanaBudaya.

This is an orchestra that combines instruments of different races and ethnics in Malaysia.

Together we'll make music and live in harmony...

Muhibbah! Wahahahaaaaaaaaa....

I'm playing ZhongHu instead of erhu.

I think I sucks cuz' the conductor keep saying: zhonghu, check your pitching ya~

Then he'll request for a D note and ask us to tune our instrument.

SOSOSOSOSO Paiseh...

Not sure if it's me... ... Maybe it's me... but then again, maybe it's not me... with the pitching problems... >.<

There's a recording last Sunday for promotional purposes so we went to IB and playplayplay~

Because I'm such a jakun, I ran around the orchestra during our rest time and took picture with different instruments.

Felt very happy after that because I get to feel and touch the various special instruments.
My MalaysianMusic teacher would be very happy too if she's there...

Hehee.
