TUSO 夢

Tsinghua University Symphony Orchestra concert last night at the National Library of China. The program included:
Roman Carnival Overture by Berlioz

御风万里 "Riding the Wind"

Tchaikovsky Symphony No. 5

(IV) http://www.tudou.com/programs/view/3a1nfkGdDFM/
This past week has seemed like a dream, and it's hard to believe it is over. For now at least, there no more rehearsals, no more cheerful banter in 118室, no more moments with newfound friends and all our smiles and glances. Ah well, I am simply happy knowing that a group like TUSO exists, and glad that I could be part of the family, even if it was only for a short while.

I'll eventually post more on what TUSO is like -- what I saw there and what it was like to play with such an ensemble. In the meantime, 誰要陪我禦風? Who wants to ride the wind with me?
