The Esplanade plays host to various art festivals and performances, and today the both of us swung by the oddly-structured arts centre to catch The Music of John Williams, performed by the Singapore Wind Orchestra.
The size of the concert hall and the number of people who came to the concert was a lot bigger and much more than we expected! (But then again, considering the concert was free and Singaporeans are suckers for anything they don't need to pay for...) The concert lasted an hour, during which the musicians performed several pieces from famous movies such as Star Wars, E.T, Indiana Jones and Jurassic Park.
This concert was the first of three (free!) concerts that will be featured in the Esplanade starting from January and lasting till March. The next one up is on the 20th of February and is titled "Oh My Valentine", featuring a series of love songs from artistes such as Nat King Cole and Utada Hikaru.
