Music of the Night.

Been dealing with quite a few talented and creative musicians of late. Just late night was a hundred plus of them. Fotocology covered the concert of ACJC choir at The Esplanade. Hours leading up to the concert, the rehearsals gave me so much quality time to explore angles.

I had time to enjoy what I do. Standing in the middle of the hall, the magnitude of it overwhelms me. As the choral ensemble delivers such mystical music, it fills the entire space with such aching beauty.

Because of the architectural aesthetic of the concert hall, my lens took to the place like a duck to water. I absolutely indulged in three hours of quality photography. Every moment savoured without questions.

There was a moment, when rehearsals was over, and I stood on the stage alone, facing the never ending deep hall and brights lights, the massive ceiling looking over me. I felt the smallness of me. It was very humbling, and yet the feeling was indescribable. And no, I wasn't about to start channelling my Susan Boyle persona.

Thank you Patrick for such a wonderful project. I absolutely adore. I have started collecting stage passes! More pics to come!
