at first I can only understand the first part where melodies are quite clear cut
Start getting lost when we reach the middle
where violins and viola started racing among each others
It was like so many parts that didn't make sense
especially at first we didn't manage to get a viola player to play the part
so many conterpoints, so many confusions...
(like what another friend said, "I don't like to try out contemporary pieces")
Until I read the notes from the composer...
and when the complete ensemble was formed
Then I realize that, no one's dream on earth will ever meet with another...
The lyrical melodies from the first flute opens up the dreamlike context
Followed by an answer (or query) from the second flute....
Perhaps the chase between the strings is the depiction of the search on the sea...
After the chase, it seems like we can catch each other
thus the slow down afterwards
However the uncertainty comes back shortly after the settling down
Until the song ends with an epiphany and realization...
Comments about the inspiration of the piece from the composer Phang Kok Jun:
I was imagining the dreams of two [people], intertwining but never really meeting, thus the constant counterpoint between the two soloists almost throughout the piece.
曲序 (by Phang Kok Jun)
You said you had a dream last night
in a land of fantasies where
words were moving melodies -
the images - still vividly alive
I too had a dream no less
a captain in a vessel of hope -
I sailed the seas in search of thee
from one dream to the next
but in a flash all was gone
how it ended I'd never know
in vain I tried to venture on and
then I slowly understood -
dreams are realities we cannot reach
pity - our dreams they never meet

像梦一场的Miniatures 2016告一段落了
昨晚演出结束后
明明心力都透支了
还是辗转难眠
心里松下一口气的同时
脑海里还在播映着
在台上的兴奋紧张的情绪
好友来捧场感受到的满满的爱
合奏这首曲的队友们整个月下来的辛劳
看着那些照片
感觉还历历在目
回想11月下旬
柳依在V1的WhatsApp群里面问谁有兴趣参与演出这首歌的时候
毫不犹豫就发了举手的emoticon
因为看题目和组合就很有感觉
(尤其因为对Flute的偏爱所以很期待这种合作)
加上之前两年Miniatures我都是钢伴
第一次在small ensemble里面拉小提琴
(相当于告别了合作两年后毕业的MyungSik的时代...)
其实不用猜都知道我是有点压力的
毕竟自己的ensemble playing不是说十分好
技巧底子也不很稳
原本是想说V1就让给别人啦
看了谱就OMG V2感觉比较难就推给很随和的展锋
(对不起啦补回cookie给你
然后这次挑大梁的二位其彰和将俊更是让我不能松懈
(好吧其实我真的太slack了
开始练的时候好一些部分我都抓不稳节拍
(尤其是那个zam zam zam的部分，你们懂的
还有一些部分我会不自觉的加快
换来的是将军的
“悦倩~~~！！！”
然后我的一些高音部分
更可怕的是开头我的旋律是跟Flute 1 同步不可以走音
过后中间一个桥段有一小句我的独奏不可以错
因为muscle memory不太好 (缺乏练习
刚开始直到表演前都有大大小小的走音
换来其彰 (加上将俊和一干人等)的
"Please~~~"
让自己觉得好“派写”
不管怎样
昨晚在台上的那一刻
华丽丽的solo没出错HAHAHA (成就感^.^
然后这次折腾了很久
从十二月到前两个星期为止
中提琴和大提琴一直空缺
直到JoPhy愿意而且得空帮忙
情侣档拉那一段的时候的互动真的很不一样（笑
 |
| Our cutes cellist Phyllis ^^ <3 |
一切才尘埃落定
而且不说音乐系学生强大
人也很好
给了很多有建设性的意见
外加当我们的节拍担当HAHAHA
（虽说每个人都有负责把关节拍的时候
但是大家还是把这个担子统统推到他身上哈哈哈
但好在他也任劳任怨啦~）
让我们有办法在两星期之内把支离破碎的组合拼凑起来
（好吧这个有点夸张但是没有中提琴和大提琴那部分的声音感觉整首歌都不make sense）
准备的过程中
大家都出了不少怨言
（订不到practice room，没有中提大提，下课直接练没吃晚餐肚子饿等等等等...）
但是也少不了开心的时候，爆了不少笑料
(大家节拍终于一致的时刻！还有奶爸将俊一直要拍照录音录影)

| 总是想尽办法要拍合照的将俊(左) |
表演也不能只有我们而没有观众
感谢各位好友抽空来捧场支持我们^.^
