Classical Concert ++

A friend of mine informed me that a classical piano & electronic concert is playing in Semarang. The ticket is 50.0000 rupiah, I say yes and so this Afternoon I went for a Classical Concert ++ by Elwin Hedrijanto at gumaya Tower Hotel. He is a local pianist from Semarang.
Although on the title said it's a classical concert, the ++ part give some room to 'cheat'. It turned out that he's doing some classical-pop-jazz concert, and he's quite entertaining.

The first song is from Schumann, after that the complex Linz rendition of Paganini's Etude. Unfortunatelly I missed the third song (and possibly also the 4th) because suddenly I felt pain, and I had to go to the nearest pharmacist for some painkiller, unfortunatelly the pharmacist doesn't have any water, so I had to walk to a shop on the next block to buy a bottle of water :(.
When I returned, he showed us his work on animation's soundtrack. Which cover A walk of life, where a girl and a dog tries to cross the street, and the dog is hit by a car, because she (I believe it's a bitch) suddenly run away, fortunately the girl manage to 'fix' it. 'Warrior', which I fail to grasp the story, however I think his rendition for the soundtrack is good, and The little thief, done by fourfilm (I think it's a british production) which told a story about a little thief, stole a toy aeroplane. While he's playing with his aeroplane, a couple of crow stole it, and brought it to a (haunted) mansion. He's bravely enter the mansion to find his stolen toy, unfortunately he met with a devil, in a nick of time before his escape he droped his toy, and the gates is magically dissapear. The devil is punishing him by turning him into a toy, and hung him in front of the mansion.


The last part is where he's playing with the genre, first he's playing a piece of Twilight's soundtrack, "The Flightless bird", he continue with his own composition, "Tale on the wind" which tell a story about life, like sailing in the ocean, with it's grandeur, danger, excitement, calm waves, storms. Lastly, he dabble with other composition "RBT (Ring Back tone)" which also a theatrical part, I think he's mocking the current generation obsession with RBT, in part he plays Jason Mraz's "I'm Yours" and Mbah Surip's "Tak Gendong" while pretending to call Agnes Monica :). All in all a fine afternoon performance, which is very rare in Semarang
