Parramatta City Brass Band Plays Xmas Carols

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! 
Thank you very much for sharing my posts on FB, Parramatta City Brass Band!

    1. Thank you very much, Chris! I love a beach and just in a summer now. Btw drawing and painting is a very intensive work, as you know well. This time, I want myself to be brave and dance brushes on paper. Cheers, Sadami

  3. Preciosas esas escenas de trompeta. Me gusta mucho dibujar a los personajes que practican arte, como nosotros, pero a través de la música. Lo nuestro se aprecia por los ojos y lo de ellos por los oídos. Un placer para los sentidos!!
    Bravo Sadami. Un fuerte abrazo y que pases unas felices fiestas con tus seres queridos. Un abrazo

      Precious those trumpet scenes. I really like to draw the characters that practice art, like us, but through music. Ours is appreciated by the eyes and theirs by the ears. A pleasure for the senses!!
      Bravo Sadami. A big hug and have a happy holiday with your loved ones. A hug
