Photos in Singapore
My roommates in United World College (UWC) at Dover Road,
where we stayed
for 3 weeks.Seen here with Yamazaki Yumi, Iga Aya, Changchien Wenting,
Ko Lin An and Kasama Akiko.
This is my quartet group in AYO, picture here was taken after a rehearsal in
one of the rooms in UWC. At the back standing are me and my very good Taiwanese violist friend Hsiao Po-Ling, in front of us are on the left cellist Ogata Yuko and violinist Obata Yuka.We rehearsed and played a very nice quartet piece by Schubert, his Quartet Op. 29 in A minor.
The same 4 of us, but now different positions....
Actually this photo was sent to me by Po-Ling after we had returned to our countries..... If only we can come together again to play the wonderfully beautiful Schubert quartet piece again.....
This photo was taken during the dinner reception after the 1992 AYO concert in Singapore Conference Hall..... Seen here with Mr Churchill, our assistant conductor who is always very cheerful-looking.....
This was taken at Botanic Gardens open air concert, Symphony in the Park,
which featured combined forces of AYO, SYO and Singapore Wind Symphony for a
rendition of Tchaikovsky's 1812 Overture. There was no stage in Botanical Gardens then, not like now got a stage near the lake.
1993
Same place, same 1812 Overture, same orchestras but different people. I was no longer a part in it. This photo was actually taken in 1993, when AYO returned to Singapore for another season of rehearsal camp. Seen here with Hsueh Chih
Chang, Lai Chia Chi, Hsieh Shih Yun and Tu An Wen, who rejoined
AYO in 1993, and Terrence Goh, one of their hosts in Singapore.
1993
Seen here with Naomi, who was our fantastic stage manager, having to take care of all the logistics and scores and attires and etc etc... she was also the stage manager in the 1993 AYO season. This photo was taken at Botanic Gardens too....
1993
I went to the AYO 1993 concert in Singapore Conference Hall again.... This picture was taken after the concert (see the wooden chairs been stacked behind us??). I went there after school I think.... Seen here with Iga Aya, Lee Shao Lan and Kasama Akiko, who rejoined
AYO in 1993.
1993
Seen here with Miss Cicilio, during the dinner reception after the AYO 1993 concert (after the above photo was taken...). She was one of our violin tutors.... I didn't manage to catch a photo with her during the 1992 AYO season, so this is to make up for that!!
1993
Seen here with Mr Gidon Kremer, world-reknowned violinist and who was the soloist in the 1993 AYO season.
1993
This photo was also taken in 1993, when a few frens and I brought our AYO friends around Singapore when they rejoined . This was taken at "Old Market" or "Lau Pa Sat", where a lot of tourists like to visit when they come to Singapore. There are a lot of exotic Singapore style foods here. Seen here with Lai Chia Chi in front of a stall selling souvenirs.
1996
This photo was taken in 1996, when AYO came to Singapore and performed in NTU and Victoria Concert Hall. Seen here with 2 people whom I am very indebted to:Mr Richard Pontzious and Dr Sylvia Chong during the VCH concert.
