Jeritan Batinku

It blew me away! It blew me away listening to the MPO playing the score to Jeritan Batinku. If P Ramlee were around he sure would be very proud of it. Yup, it's my first time at the DFP. Arrived early and managed to sneak a shot. Our seats were at the upper circle. No complains because we were right in the middle and from where we were, we could see all the action going on. If you just let yourself go, you could really lose yourself with the music and the movements of the bow stroking the violins (ok statement poyo, but it's true!).Sighhh.



It was a concert. Nonetheless it was Sheila Majid's concert. MPO Celebrates 25 years of Sheila Majid. It was worth it! Over the years I've been to a few of her concerts. KuMohon at Stadium Negara with Anuar Zain and Dayang Norfaizah opening for her. Then there was the one at KL Convention Center a few years back. I guess this one is really special as she was accompanied by the MPO.




Highlights:

1. She is super toned! Am very envious of her toned arms.
2. Loved the instrumental/ score Jeritan Batinku and Dia by the MPO. Dia suddenly sounds like something that came in a Walt Disney movie. Mesmerizing.
3. Loved Sheila Majid on Emosi. Emo kejap.
4. Loved the crowd signing (termasuk la aku yang perasan suara sedap), complementing the orchestra.
5. Loved the seating at DFP. Didn't feel blocked like those at Istana Budaya.
6. The cute dude on Violin right behind Sheila. Hehehehe.

Check out the photos here: Gua website .These were from the 1st Oct performance I suppose. We went on the 2nd Oct. She wore a blue and glittering diamond crusted number that night. Check out the cute guy, in the close up picture (pic no 3). Hehaw.

p/s: I wonder how much does the guy on Cymbals is getting paid? Hmmm.....
