Only a few more rehearsals to go before Music Day Out!

This Wednesday, the MacPherson Philharmonic Orchestra conducted a rehearsal, going through the set list for their concert during Music Day Out.

Have a listen to a brief section of Over the Moon, a piece commissioned by MPPO under Music Director Lester Kong. Over the Moon is dedicated to the aspirations of this young orchestra, written by composer Sulwyn Lok.

 

Since Over the Moon also requires a Chinese Orchestra section, we were joined by the Lok Ensemble.
