• Thursday, Apr 08, 2010 @noon – 1pm: COC Four Seasons 的Free Concert!! 溫哥華的 Trio Accord。奏的是… 唉唷，乜咁啱？ 又是 Goldberg Variations！不過這次是 Dmitri Sitkovetsky’s 編的弦樂三重奏版 [Video]
• Saturday, Aug 07, 2010 @8pm: CBC Glenn Gould Studio — 本地的 Kindred Spirits Orchestra。曲目包括 Ives 的 The Unanswered Question [Video]，Beethoven 的 Symphony No. 4 in B flat [Video]，及小弟另一摯愛：Mozart 的 Requiem, K. 626 [Video]。

唔知在多倫多，有冇知音人？

謝謝YuenLin的好介紹：

上帝早已預備
曲：陸偉峰/PHAT@24herbs
詞：陸偉峰

就算我可得到世間的財寶
但你卻說要我知道是永生的道路
是我在罪人時你賜我中保

就算我可得到今生的自豪
但你卻說要我知道
別為因此而煩惱在絕望裡投訴
只要仰望主哪怕會迷路

上帝早已預備我不相信運氣
即使風光明媚但卻不是你預期
上帝早已預備只少我不被遺棄
難得你為我死

就算我可得到今生的自豪
但你卻說要我知道
別為因而煩惱在絕望裡投訴
只要仰望主哪怕會迷路

上帝早已預備我不相信運氣
即使風光明媚但卻不是你預期
上帝早已預備只少我不被遺棄
難得你為我死

感謝你你會為我打氣
感謝你從谷底將我救起
感謝你縱使失去我的真理
但我沒有忘記

上帝早已預備我不相信運氣
即使風光明媚但卻不是你預期
上帝早已預備只少我不被遺棄
難得你為我死
難得你為我死

A lot to do in the coming few weeks, thus blogging will be sparse in the next little while.

And let me leave you with Jocelyn’s new found favorite, and my long-time singing inspiration since high-school — Bobdy McFerrin:

And of course, his Bach/Gounod’s Ave Maria:

Which he once recorded with Yo Yo Ma.

Hear two newly discovered Mozart pieces here.

Discovered compositions were played for public using Mozart’s own piano forte in Salzburg, his hometown.

IMSLP / Petrucci Music Library:

…Our goal is to create a virtual library containing all public domain music scores and/or sheet music, as well as scores from composers who are willing to share their music with the world without charge.

Check it out. Beethoven, Vivaldi, Bach & Mozart… and lots more!

[wow, it’s been a while since my last music post…]

Walking outside this afternoon reminds me of this lovely hymn. Enjoy and have a great weekend.

老友 Charis 和 Anson 的 One Body，歷4年之久終於出新碟，我當然要在此勁推！新碟 「one heart 同心」可在這裡試聽。

Can you see it too?

I see the king of glory
Coming on the clouds with fire
The whole earth shakes
The whole earth shakes

I see his love and mercy
Washing over all our sin
The people sing
The people sing

[Chorus]
Hosanna Hosanna
Hosanna in the highest [x2]

I see a generation
Rising up to take their place
With selfless faith
With selfless faith

I see a near revival
Stirring as we pray and seek
We’re on our knees
We’re on our knees

[Chorus]

Heal my heart and make it clean
Open up my eyes to the things unseen
Show me how to love like you have loved me

Break my heart from what breaks yours
Everything I am for your kingdoms cause
As I go from nothing to
Eternity

[Chorus x2]

Hosanna in the highest
