KVT – What can I say, except WOW and WONDERFUL!

On Saturday night Cracking Bamboo was sensational… It just kept going from great to gorgeously greater. The final composition with the performance piece by the Korean mouth painter was standing ovation stuff… and the composition and performance ensemble devised by Kim Ngoc was brilliant theater.
I wish I could be a percussion groupie and tag along with the 60 or so performers to Indonesia and HCMC… the final performance night would be brain whirling.

What a great Percussive Symphony it could be… all five movements of it… take away the talking between ensemble change overs… perhaps replace it with relevant video bits… and you’d have a totally world class performance which would have the critics and the audience in wild acclaim.

Thank you, you wonderful Germans and your other supporters for two sumptuous Bamboo’s thus far… and, please, MORE!

My main regret is that I was out of town and missed the two evenings at Goethe.

PS: the cameramen were almost held in check throughout the evening though  at one stage I was hoping that  the gong player might manage to use the noggin of the guy in stripes as an echo chamber.
