A Cappella!

Hey yo! I just feel like blogging today and here I am with a new entry ! :D
BUT this would not be something that happened on me recently....hahaha!

I just want to share to you guys that I actually went to a mini concert or something like a show in last January at Esplanade Singapore! It was a great and yet an awesome show that we shouldn't have missed!


Oh wait! Hmmm... I think I should introduce to you guys what is "A cappella" about first before I start everything!!


If you didn't know, a cappella music is specifically solo or group singing without instrumental sound, or a piece intended to be performed in this way basically! It contrasts with cantata, which is accompanied singing, which also means a purely human voices mimicking music instrument!


Alright ! Now let me share with all of you the awesome Chinese a cappella concert to you guys!



The name “PennYo” is a play on the Mandarin word for friends, “peng you” (朋友). This aptly sums up the group's philosophy of being a tightly knit circle of friends, beginning with the group founders. PennYo members have hailed from the United States, China, Taiwan, Singapore, Hong Kong, Korea and even Hungary. Yet the group has managed to foster an all-inclusive, eclectic culture that is uniquely PennYo!

Moreover, the group also shares a mission to bring the sounds of popular Chinese songs to the United States through a cappella. The process is not so much a direct replication of existing music as it is an evolution into a new form—a form, which the group hopes will appeal to existing fans of Chinese music, as well as those who have never been exposed before!

AND YES! The most important is that THEY ARE ALL ASIAN!

Here are some pictures that I took during the show!



Before the show starts!

Alright! That all I know about A cappella and I hope you guys enjoy reading my blog!
Will be blogging the Korea day 2 soon so stay tuned! <3
