To Be "Cultured"

QUARTET FROM JAPAN

Friends from Nihongo Class- Zarah & Weng, invited me to come with them to a Japan Foundation Sponsored event: J-Classic Concert

So Popoy and I went to CCP (which ironically took almost 2 hrs with so much traffic when normally it would have taken about 20minutes only). I brought Popoy with me because he said he had never heard an orchestra or quartet played live before. 'You have to go!' I immediately said. He said, "yeah, I should para naman maging 'cultured' din ako (so i can also be 'cultured')" I don't know about you, but seeing and hearing an orchestra live is such a magnificent experience!

I wasn't wrong because we all marveled and enjoyed the concert. It's just different live, the sound, the feeling in your nerves... it's as if the sound waves are just passing right thru your body! At times i feel the hair in my arms stand up :)

i wish they could have one more sponsored event like that.
