Here's some upcoming news of our Singaporean renowned pianist Lim Yan performing with an orchestra. Guess what? He's going to perform with Metropolitan Symphony Orchestra on 19 April 09!!! Opps... its not the orchestra in New York where dramatic loud and beautiful voices have to be accompanied by such great orchestra. But it's good enough to be considered one of the fine orchestras in Asia....all from Japan ...ranting some "Ahleegaito"... . Let me present u: Tokyo Metropolitan Symphony Orchestra with its resident conductor Mr Kazuhiro Koizumi.
