Glorious Nite

Inside the Philharmonic Hall


It was an unforgettable moment to hav the opportunity to delve the contemplation of one of the prodigous concertos masterpiece in the Malaysia Philharmonic Hall last nite. Thanx so much to my cousin brother who are kind enuf to expose me into this wholenew monumental experience. It was a legacy entitled Beethoven Violin Concerto in D, a masterpiece transcended down by the title itself, Ludwig Van Beethoven. Its unprecedented as one of the greatest concertos of all time,n many would hav quoted "the best concerto ever written". This glorious orchestra is being led by a German-borned violinist, Vivian Hagner, professionally conducted by the French stage master, Mathias Barmet..
It was indeed an eye opener for me. From the accustomed clothing before entrance itself, i think its much a classy type of show la. Only ones with formal wear like jacket, or batik,, tuxedos, n etc are allowed to be seated in the hall. As for women, only gown are allowed to be seated. As a first timer, there's really few rules which my cousin told me, much to my amusement.. First, only clap when others clap, stand n clap when others do this too. How true it is..There's few moments along the play which i tot was the end n nearly clapped, but the play til proceed wit pindrop silence. I really mean it when it comes to the silence..It was a total pindrop silence along the play. Even a sniff or cough can be easily noticed along the play. Secondly,once in the hall, n the show begins, any tolerance of shitting n peeing shall be appreciated to the max. Coz those who stood up n walk away wil be considered rude.
I njoyed the whole play. The whole play combined by the prowess of the leading violinist, acumen of the conductor and the brash grandiose skills by the rest of the supporting orchestra players had make this play a Great one..Only at times, newbie like me finds difficulty in judging the end of the play..
