ur Grade 7 is from which syllabus ?

how u define or classify that u r in Grade 7 ?

U got it right .. CCMA is in mentari and "Dunhuang Malaysia" is in SS2.

which is better ... how many strings are ur guzheng and it's made of steel or nylon?

This post has been edited by subangman: Aug 22 2010, 10:32 PM

Ok.. sori i couldn't managed to reply earlier as I was away from KampungKUL.

Since u cleared ur Grade 6 with CCOM then u should forget about SS2 "Dunhuang" as they use 23 steel strings... exactly like the kapok guitar steel strings.

Ur is a 21 nylon coated steel strings... more mellow than the steel{veri sharp pitch}.

So when u will be in Klang valley PM me. I can recommand my daughter's sifu to u .

r u a student studin somewhere near Subang ?

DunHuang Malaysia SS2 got their own syllabus ... but not really affiliated with the DCMA;(DUNHUANG CHINESE MUSIC ASSOCIATION) or Shanghai Conservatory of Music.

Correct me if I got the wrong info... as they using the 23strings.

So u r on my turf now or going to b there soon ?

He normally teaches from a music center in Taipan Subang..nearby lar. but if u like him to go to ur place i need to check with him.

he used to come to my house teaching my daughter but I perfer the class conducted @ the center since my gal having another class (her latin right after the guzheng class)... easier for her and myself as well ...both inside the same building.

Btw; there is one also @ SS15 near to Maybank .

bru.. thx for ur hardship translating the mandarin poem. THANK YOU again.

Wisma Shaw is on tis Sat & Sun. 28th August & 29 August ...........2pm to 6pm.

Klang Parade is on 5th Sept 2010.

------------- waaaahhhh under open sky full moon plucking guzheng wat a good suggestion ... u wan nice Pur-E tea and mooncake as well?

The Sunday after we met was the most hectic one but anyway Mei mei tied with the YangQin guy 钟音翔 扬琴 乡村抒怀; Cert. + Hamper + RM100.

The winner there was 王仙福 中阮 睡莲
and 1st runners up 颜文庆 琵琶 十面埋伏

basically she just hopped into the car from Times Square and completed her guZheng competition within 10mins and back to Times Square again for her next competition.

That day i really hope u were there as she didn't even tune her guzheng... and I dun know how as well. She just bing bing bong and left..

For Klang Parade; 16 solo chinese instrument contestants; some from Shaw parade competition fellas also took part.... she pocketed another RM300 + hamper + cert.

For the group there were 7 teams .. quite impressed with them; overall not bad.


Got some clips of her performance but paiseh to put it here.

Faceless,
Apparently condition © 参赛者可安排一名同伴作伴奏让演奏更丰富。
Participants can arrange a companion for playing accompaniment to richer; thus he walked free ... but he is good in YangQin.

Tat guy playin the pipa is good too. He was playin a G8 above pipa song . (十面埋伏)

IF you like to watch the clips pls let me know or I can post it here.


Empire : Yeah lor... weekend I am worse than my driver... where at least he got paid for driving.
Waking up early morning and normally my gals time set often challenge my driving skills and knowledge towards all the detours whenever there is traffic jam in KL one.

That morning I've only 15min to ferry them from Subang Jaya to Times Square..... luckily it was early sunday morning... so not tat bad lor and i make it without any delay.


This weekend I'll b in KLPac for my son cello thingy... another 12pm to 2pm Sentul KLPac ... 3pm to 5pm Bandar Puturi Puchong- modern Ballroom... and this will b my routine for awhile every Sun.
