kopiosatu SG

john williams came to SG around a few years back... and i wasn't free to watch!!! now i wonder how long more i have to wait Confused

mercutioz SG

back when he was relatively unknown or the cultural awareness of sg was 2 low?

kopiosatu SG

more like super low cultural awareness...

john williams has been playing for so many years!!!

yakyak SG

where is the location Alliance Francaise?

SnowFlag SG

Accordingly to the brochure I have:
"In an interview in 1985, Andres Segovia named Stefano Grondona as one of his favorite students (together with John Williams, Oscar Ghiglia and Alirio Diaz)." Mr. Green

kopiosatu SG

any link??? i'd like to see his repetoire

SnowFlag SG

I may go for the one by Stefano Grondona. But then must see whether I got to work night shift in that day or not. Wink

BTW, to all:
Go there early b'cos there may be a CD sales played by the artiste before the concert. Normally, these isn't available at our local stores. At the end of concert, there may be a signing session by the artiste.
