Young KL Singers @ KLCC

Jack, Angel and me...


Ding di li Ding di li...
What seem to be the sound chimes chiming and utter gibberish were the words to our opening song of the evening...
Magnificent we were as asserted with the title of the Mongolian number, Magnificent Horses.


I present to you, the Young KL Singers
With a small crowd no less than 400 at the Kuala Lumpur Convention Centre Plenary theater, it was such rush to be able to perform along with the Trinity College Choir who had so much to offer and for us, so much to learn from.


I truly enjoyed their showcase of talents, and not to mention looks, in addition to the beautiful songs that were carefully handpicked and skillfully performed.


though the short period of time ceased to allow us time to mingle around but performing alongside with them truly is a privilege and I hope to do so again in the future...


What I truly admire is their deep bass choirist who produce such beautiful tone to the songs while the tenors, as I would conclude, are able to bring the savage beast to rest with their impeccable tone...


My favourite was of course when they did their "surprise encore" of our Malaysian "Jong Jong Inai" was truly a treat for both the crowd and ourselves as Malaysians.


But the best part of the day is being able to merge the choirs and sing in unison our version of the Medley, Kenangan Lagenda comprising Sheila Majid's Lagenda, Sudirman's Hujan, the traditional folk song, Bujang Lapok and lastly, the late P.Ramlee's Getaran Jiwa.


It did drive the crowd wild each time we perform this lovely tune.
It was, a great experience and I hope in our coming production in September, the crowd will get much "wilder"...


Cheese!!!
