		The Sibelius Violin Concerto is a work with which the Malaysian Philharmonic would be familiar: it was performed on their d´but in Singapore with Antje Weithass on November 9, 1999, and later recorded for the Vox Classics label (VXP 7904) with Aaron Rosand.
		In the throes of spontaniety if not eccentricity, Kuusisto stamped his foot, gestured to the audience and the orchestra with his bow, hunched himself over Quasimodo-like, tucked one foot behind the calf of the other, and fiddled away one-legged with much ostentatiousness.
		The orchestra responded with great alacrity to Zander, but I was drawn especially to the string playing, shading the opening undulating melody with autumnal melancholy.

	Malaysian Philharmonic Orchestra - 24 August 2002 - INKPOT
		This weekend, there was to be found the delightful serendipity of the Gala Opening Concert of the Malaysian Philharmonic, a pops gig by the Braddell Heights Symphony Orchestra at Esplanade and the Singapore Symphony home at the Victoria Concert Hall under Yoei Levi, all performing at the same time.
		In the orchestral recapitulation of the majestic opening theme, for instance, sections of the orchestra had trouble keeping up with the soloist - although that is not to entirely fault the conductor or players.
		For the encore (and yes, there was one), Ooi and the Philharmonic revisited Kuantan-born Vivian Chua's (b.1974) Medley of Malay Folk Songs (for want of a title), premièred earlier this year at the BBC KL Proms.

		Glad to say, the Malaysian Philharmonic proves itself to be a formidable Mahler ensemble and the experience of listening to Das Lied live is truly one of the most moving experiences in my life.
		Acclaimed as probably the finest piece he ever composed (apart from overplayed Concerto for Orchestra), I believe this masterpiece is best listened (and viewed) live, especially with particularly the innovative orchestral arrangements of two seperate string orchestra for antiphonal effect and central placements of percussion instruments.
		For the fast movements, Maestro Lintu and the MPO responded to the difficult rhythmic writings of Bartok and the antiphonal exchanges between two string orchestras are executed well with few minor lapses, or what I rather call "lags" but not too unsteady.
