I just got in Chinese Orchestra. It was my first choice, so I guess I'm lucky. Friday, which is today, is the first day of my CCA. I placed my interested choice of instrument as the pipa, which is a string instrument like a guitar. However, I was transferred over the the yang qin section, because there were too many people doing the pipa. The yang qin is actually a big cube-like structure with many strings on it and to play it, you are supposed to hit it with two sticks (or whatever it is) to produce a sharp and clear sound. There are many strings on this instrument and it looked difficult at first, however, after learning the basics, I discovered it was not as difficult as I thought. So I spent the rest of the time playing the yang qin. Thereafter, I was dismissed. Quite a short day actually though... (and this is a short post too, quite, at least)
Yep, lots of homework for the weekend too. Got to do a recording for AAP.
BYE : )
