i went to a brilliant concert last night at the esplanade. bobby mcferrin was wonderful. it's quite an experience to hear him sing live. he's got such a hypnotic and mesmerising voice. and his inspirations come from all genres: asian, classical, jazz, african. he did this segment with this persussion group called tribal tide and he sounded as if he was singing some indian songs. all the accompanying musicians were great. jeremy monteiro was there too.....mcferrin was really entertaining as well, getting the whole audience to sing along and becoming part of the act. and for the 1st time in my life, i saw someone strum a PIANO. for 2 hours, i felt like an idol-crazy school girl who wanted to queue for 2 hours just to get his autograph and photo. i truly think he's one of the most talented people in the world and i'm soooo glad i manage to catch the concert.

ps: and the concert hall was beautiful! with all the varnished wood and hanging equipment.
