BATS Big Band Grand Launching Concert


So, I had my usual Monday night music classes. The time at the studio after work, with my Broadway loves which never fails to make me feel very very happy! Sometimes so happy that it comes to a point where I think I'm crazy :) There's something about performing arts, dance and musical that just give me this happiness inside and not to mention the motivation at the same time. Just amazing the energy that gushes through me when I sit through these sessions. Nothing was impossible!... or at least it felt that way.

My Broadway Loves R-L : Casey, Eunice, Marvin, Dom

What more, the selection of music Eunice gave me this time was from Disney and Wicked the Musical! Just awesome. Eventhough, erm...I think I might have eaten too much chocolate at work, just right before class, I couldn't control my voice at one point, it went too high when I sang Defying Gravity! *smacks forehead* Well, nothing beats an amazing team :) Eunice only encouraged me further to a point where I wasn't even thinking when I sang. I felt like as if I was in the music itself, if you know what I mean. Good thing our studios are sound-proof :P

After class ended, it was the rehearsals for the BATS Big Band Grand Launching Concert. Yup you heard me right!


The combination of free food (buffet too might I add) and great music is always the best, without a doubt! and it's coming your way very very very soon :)


Broadway Academy and our new-up-and-running Broadway Academy Talent School (BATS) with support from Jabatan Kebudayaan dan Kesenian Negara are bringing you the BATS Big Band Grand Launching Concert. The BATS Big Band (BBAB) was formed in early December 2010 and is made up of about 18 jazz musicians. The conductor of BBAB is none other than our very own man behind this Broadway - Casey Koh, the core founder of Broadway Academy (M) Sdn Bhd. The band repertoire includes well-known tunes like 'In The Mood', 'Copa Cobana' (which they rehearsed just oh-so-beautifully), 'Somewhere Over The Rainbow' and many more.


The creation and goal of BBAB is to perform meaningful music, talk about the importance of the jazz heritage in Malaysia, bring jazz music awareness to young people and not to forget offering audiences a relaxed and entertaining atmosphere.

This occasion will mark the official launch of the Big Band - and the Big Band hopes to get involved in many more performances - if not too quickly, in the near future. We have great talents in the team, and I never doubted for a second that they will definitely do great sooner than we think! :)


So, with that, free your dates and come join me and the Broadway Team at the event! You're sure to love it. Judging from the rehearsals we've had, it's definitely gonna be an absolutely fantastic show! So we're extending the invitation to all music lovers to come and be the first to witness the BATS Big Band in its inaugural concert.
