Amalgamation

AMALGAMATION

by Antonius Cong

I think that music and visual arts can complement themselves nicely. They do different things - the music forces you into a different mood and perspective whilst the visual stuff can engage you in a more direct cognitive manner.

- Aaron Koblin

“ power, feels subtle, yet engulfing as it ventures alongside narration of each repertoire. some a blazing storm, unrelenting strength some like requiem rain solemn and soothing. some makes you feel as if you are engaging with the instrument itself how it feels to be a musician.. “

Perhaps through this thought I start to appreciate music as not only sound itself, but also experience and indulge myself inside each and every repertoire.

Through this series, I would like to showcase the dynamism, the power, and the expression that makes up each individual, the symphony, and the orchestra as a whole.

It amazes me that throughout my entire rapport, I have witnessed the amalgamation of visual arts and performing arts in the orchestra, thus affirming my idea of multidisciplinary in arts.
