Dear Rose, Aisyam, Mustaqim, Hanif, Ainul and I formed a brass quintet. We performed Amazing Grace and Debussy's Trois Chansons de Charles d'Orleans for the CMA Open Recital #22 which was located at the Tenby School.

They probably had no idea how much I missed all of their faces, like old days - warm, loving and supportive, besides their extraordinary talents - family. I met Lilian, Leonard, Luqman, Ihju etc., thank Isabella and team for working extremely hard to bring us all together. " We should always be prepared for changes. Music is life, life is music. " - Mr Eric Lee taught us so much about what music is, it is not only just technically master, but also life experience itself, which I feel I benefit the most within these three days.
