Singapore Chinese Orchestra's Children Concert

We went to watch the Singapore Chinese Orchestra’s Children concert. It’s very similar to the Babies Prom's Concert we watched last December, but in this concert, most of the instruments are the typical ones that you found in Chinese songs.

But they have some modern instrument as well, just like the big Harp in the picture above. Caden was so excited to see that as it is the same instrument just like the one David, in the bible, play when he accompanying his sheep.

We learnt about major and minor and the seven major keys in music in this concert. But the one thing that captured most of Caden’s attention is the musicians. Caden couldn’t stop pointing and told me, that uncle is playing cello, or that one is playing double bass.

He asked questions too when he didn’t know the name of the instrument. There was this big xylo-piano. It looked familiar cos’ we have the miniature at home but he couldn’t figure it out. And when I told him what it’s called and told him that it was just like the one at home, I could see his face saying, “yeahh…that’s why it looks familiar” ^_^
