Fritz Quartet @ St Regis

2 Feb 2008


Saturday night, we performed for the wedding of Mark and Soo Yeon at St Regis Ballroom. It was our first time at St Regis, and we were especially impressed by the sound system provided by St Regis.

At 8pm, the guests streamed in and filled the vast ballroom. As Mark had indicated he wanted light and lively music, we planned our repertoire accordingly. Soon, it was time for the first march-in (Canon in D) and the guests welcomed the newly wed couple with thunderous applause. We continued with favourites such as Mozart's Eine Kleine Nachtmusik and Bach's Air on G.

We took our set break when the couple left for their costume change. It was an eyeopening affair as the couple emerged the 2nd time with Korean traditional costumes!

We opened our 2nd set with Chinese favourites 夜来香 (Ye Lai Xiang) and 月亮代表我的心 (Yue Liang Dai Biao Wo De Xin) while the couple left for their 3rd costume change. We performed Fly Me To the Moon, a jazz favourite for their march-in.

Thanks to staff of St Regis for the helpful technical assistance and our congratulations to Mark and Soo Yoen! :)
