Ruan, known for its soothing sound and recognised more as an accompaniment in the orchestra, pairs with guzheng, a highly-popular and captivating instrument often played in solo pieces. Repertoire includes A Tribute to Yueqin, a lovely ruan piece, as well as Jackdaws Frolicking in Water, a classical and representative guzheng work with strong Teochew flavour .

This is an opportunity to experience an entire spectrum of suona music in one night.

Highlights include: Qin Shi Yi in the Taiwanese folk song Ti Or Or (The Dark Sky), arranged to include pop elements, suona and ka qiang to bring out its exquisite lyrics and amusing tune; Zhou Dong Chao in Love to the Yellow Land, an inspirational piece that he composed; and Guo Ya Zhi in The Call for the Phoenix, a suona concerto that premiered in 2007, featuring Guo and the Hong Kong Chinese Orchestra.

And also, many people have been asking and there are many speculations too, but as Xue Shi said (on the Tagboard). There will be NO CO CAMP due to PRIME. It is also not possible to have the camp at the new site as it is not safe and we are not familiar with the area. There will, however, still be a farewell for the Dark Blues :) Just not in school. We can guarantee that it would still be MAJOR fun! :D
 
That's all! Jiayou sec 4s! Only a few more weeks!
 
<3 LOVE, COmm
