Had appassionata 7 on 10th january 2004.

It felt really good playing in a band again.. especially that it's nycb. Nothing can change the fact that Nycb is my favourite!

the 99 batch of sec4s were the ones that played thru from appa 1 to appa 3 (heh cause we could only play in concerts from sec2 onwards)

What happenend in appa 1... one would ask.

I remember there was this excitement, trying to name the concert series. We finally could have our own concert! The committee came up wif a few names, so did the teachers in charge, mrs quek and mdm toh i think then... then we called it appassionata 1.

Wenhui, then the resident oboe player designed and drew the whole appassionata banner. i remember that she was from AEP (arts elective program). Her design was the best design..All of us simply loved it. we printed a band tshirt wif that design, we had concert booklets wif that design. They even recycled the banner for appa 2.

The most memorable thing was that Appassionata 1 was held in VCH. the only time i played in vch.... wonderful. We kicked started it wif "Summon the Heroes". Huisi, linying, jiali, jiahui, alicia. and i think winnie and caiwei played. Memorable concert. We played summon the heroes well. I remember. very memorable. How time flies right?

It's all the way to appa 7 now. So fast yet so slow. Steph was saying during appa 10 (issit?) that we call back everyone, as many seniors as possible.. and we will play together as a massive alumni band. Summon the heroes. We will summon back the heroes of Nanyang Concert Band / Military Band.
