July -- Peak of The Year.

The BIG EVENTS were all in July-- "Together We Are One" Tri-Chung Ling combined concert, Tri-Chung Ling Sports Day and Singapore International Band Festival (SIBF). It was a pretty busy month but we managed to get through all the events and what means the most is that the band has definitely learnt a lot and gained the once-in-a-lifetime experience.

Flashback to the memorable moments........................

1. 'Together We Are One' Tri-Chung Ling Combined Concert

    -7th of July 2014

    - Dewan Sri Pinang

    - Collaboration with Chung Ling Wind Orchestra and Chung Ling Private School String Ensemble

    - Repertoire: Danse Bacchanale , Yorkshire Ballad ; The Witch And The Saint, Fairytale, The Phantom of The Opera; Encore: The Stars And Stripes Forever March

Finale of the concert. Dato Seri Kelvin Kiew and our conductor Dato Woon Wen Kin!

The bands enjoyed the night and it was a wonderful experience to have such collaboration. Music is a language without words that connects us together as one. :)

2. Tri-Chung Ling Sports Day

    - 18th of July 2014

    -  SMJK Chung Ling Butterworth

Tri-Chung Ling Sports Day is one of the most important event in our school. The event was held in our school this year so the CLBWO turned into a marching band to lead the parade of the opening ceremony. All the hard work paid off, good job guys and keep it up in the future!

CLBWO visited Sentosa Island!

There were 7 adjudicators and 16 school bands taking part in the competition. SIBF was indeed an awesome event and young musicians should be encouraged to participate in such event!
