ParramattaCity Brass Band played Christmas carols for us, residents and anyone in
Centenary Square. The Band welcomed me. Lovely to see the band playing a
wonderful music freebie for music lovers : any races, homeless people, people with
disability, and whatever the background is.
In the band,
each different personality interested me. A young very shy man made me smile. His
grand ma and a mum were there, too. They should be very proud of the son. “How
long have you been playing a trumpet?” I asked. He had played it before a
kindy. Aw, me, too.
I do not remember when I started to draw. I’ve loved drawing from very an early
stage of life such as three or four?
Each member
has a strong feeling to her/his own instrument that is quite expensive. I had a
chat with another lady with a trumpet. She spent several thousand dollars in
it. Me, too, have had spent similar amount in materials every year. I wondered
where she could find a place to practice individually. She sometimes used a
mute. My suggestion, “Early in the morning at a beach!” brightened up her. “Beach!”
Yes, no one would complain about sounds only waves. I sketched down her in
black and white.
I will
colour the lady with a trumpet next time.
See you at the same place from 6pm to
7pm this Thursday! Thank you very much, Steven O'Brien for connecting me with Parramatta City Band!
