Bertram Wee in recital at Alliance Française de Singapour_13 December 2008

I had the privilege to attend one of the finest and most talented young men called Bertram Wee, Our CG member; Wendy and Tom’s son first piano recital at Alliance Française de Singapour on last Saturday, 13 December 2008. He was painfully shy young man but when he starts to play the piano…He was literally transformed into a master weaving music out of the piano keys…Full of confidence and zest… The music was simply…how shall l put it…Full of life…the power…the zest…Imagine he is only sweet sixteen!? And he is able to play to the beautiful captivating tunes of Manuel de Falla, Sergei Prokofiev and Frederic Chopin and without looking at the scores…only pausing for a short while to take a breather before continuing his next piece…Such a breathtaking performance…

It’s simply thrilling yet at the same time delightful performance…To tell you the truth, I am simply glued to my seat… Simply moved beyond words…Actually wishing and hoping that the music never ends …Imagine that we are part of such a special occasion…his first recital and l believed its won’t be the last and am very sure that there will be many more of such performances to come…

It made me simply want to dash out after the recital to learn to play piano…
Frankly speaking, I was picturing myself playing the piano…Ha-Ha…
Perhaps Maybe l really should…Never say never correct?!
Awww…well, isn’t life all about hopes and dreams…
