Kuala Lumpur, January
2017 – Still
remember my previous post regarding “MAGIC
IN MUSIC” at DEWAN FILHARMONIK PETRONAS? (http://www.wljack.com/2017/01/upcoming-event-mpo-presents-mozarts.html)
Our
team from wljack.com
has been given an opportunity to do a coverage on the show. It was a really
pleasant magical afternoon for us!
A Family Fun Day Show
With The Spice Up Of Magic!
It
was such an enchanting kick start for The
Malaysian Philharmonic Orchestra with this concert “MAGIC IN MUSIC”. It was a showcase that could provide a wonderful
symphonic fun for families!
The
concert consists of Magical related pieces
which include the Harry Potter fans’ favorite
John Williams’ “Harry Potter and the
Sorcerer’s Stone: Hedwig’s Theme”, a few of Mozart’s The Magic Flute Aria, Dvořák’s Rusalka Aria (a work based
on a popular Czech fairytale about a mystical mermaid), Humperdinck Hänsel und Grete’s Aria (the story about kinship,
bravery and the battle between good and evil.) as well as Dukas’ The Sorcerer’s Apprentice. (a popular concert piece dated in
1797)
Guillaume Tourniaire,
weaving the magic on stage!
French
conductor Guillaume Tourniaire once
again played the role of conductor for the show on the MPO. His lively conducting of the show brought the magic of the
music to life as he wielded his conductor baton like a wizard casting his
spells onto the audiences!
In
addition to that, the show was also assisted by Datuk Yasmin Yusoff, a renowned figure in the Malaysian
entertainment industry. With her distinguished narrative throughout the show,
it has brought even more delights to the show. Her voice on stage and her cue
for the audiences to cast spells like “Cury Mury Fuk” and etc made the show
felt like an educational lesson in a magical school.
Not
to forget, the show also featured many talented musicians and singers which
have further enhanced the concert experience. Daniel Carison, the bass baritone has been featured in The Magic Flute: Papageno’s Aria “Ein
Mädchen oder” while other aria has featured sopranos Ang Mei Foong, Yeoh Ker Ker,
YiLing Chaing and tenor Yap Jin Hin. They all have provided
magnificent performances that have truly astonished the audiences.
Last
but not least, we personally really love the soprano Anna Siminska who has used her beautiful voice to amaze the
audiences in Mozart’s The Magic Flute:
Queen of The Night Aria with perfect hitting of high notes!
It
was a really great and enjoyable concert. Me and my dear Josephine have truly enjoyed the show!
There
are many other great concerts coming up ahead at Dewan Filharmonik Petronas, do check it out! One of it would be “MOZART’S ‘THE MAGIC FLUTE’ which is
coming up next week! (Check out: http://www.wljack.com/2017/01/upcoming-event-mpo-presents-mozarts.html
