阿老师带你看2024上海乐器展
我每年都期待这场乐器盛宴。 我喜欢在巨大的大厅里漫游,那里摆满了所有我能想象到的乐器,还有很多我想象不到的乐器! 今年,我演奏了一架比我还高的巨型手风琴、一把琴身上刻有银河系图案的电子大提琴,还有一架可以折叠成两半的钢琴。然而,低音萨克斯风却像神话中的白鲸一样再次与我失之交臂,我只好用低音萨克斯风的纸板模型来安慰自己。
与 Vasko Dukovsky 即兴演奏的低音单簧管和次中音萨克斯是我那天最开心的回忆。
Alec visits the 2024 Shanghai Music Instrument Expo
I look forward to this bonanza every year. I love roaming through the massive cavernous halls filled with every imaginable instrument, and many more which I could not have imagined! This year I played a giant accordion which is even taller than me, an electric cello with the galaxy depicted on its body, and a piano that folds in half. The bass saxophone, however, has eluded me once again, like the mythical white whale, and so I had to console myself by playing a cardboard cutout of a bass saxophone.
The highlight of the day was an impromptu bass clarinet and tenor sax jam with Vasko Dukovsky.
