Devilish
Been to a concert "Mozart & Shostakovich" by Hong Kong Philharmonic Orchestra tonite, wow and that was quite a special experience - havent listened to this kind of pieces in a concert. The first half is a very typical one - Symphony by Mozart. The second half is 'extraordinary', the first piece is "Deviance on Paganini's Caprice No.24", it gives me the feel of ghosts / phantom and very 'devilish'... the second piece is the Chamber Symphony by Shostakovich, it's also a very special one - what i read from the brochure is tat it's sth abt the time of Stalin n Soviet-ism - very gloomy, dark, and 'espionage' feel. One more thing abt the concert is that all the violinists are not sitting but rather standing and played the music, the feel is more casual like and also special as well. Anyway a wonderful experience tonite =)
btw, i hv to thank Antho for 'giving' me this ticket as he's now enjoying his trip haha.
