First things first,

we’ll take a snapshot every 1 week (preliminary); no more, no less (hmmm...).

This is how the snapshot works:-

Step 1: Answer the following 3 questions literally and subjectively*. Q3 is optional:

Put name of the piece to the title: [composer: work]

1. how you come across to it: [e.g. overheard someone’s iPod on MTR / in a concert / my niece sang it on my lap]

2. why this piece? [e.g. I’m running out of inspiration / to steal some ideas from / mo liu / would like to expand my repertoire]

3. (and...) [e.g. It has to be Celibidache. No Karajan. Best for sleepless nights.]

Step 2: Tag freely as you like. It will be nice if you tag the composer, genre, instruments, notable artists, and CD labels. You are welcomed to include something personal. Remember to tag your name. So you’ll get what you’ve listened to by clicking your own name after some time.

Step 3: If you feel the urge to elaborate or discuss certain aspects of that piece, please feel free to add 4. (also...), or do it in "comments".

Step 4: Do share with us good recordings you find on youtube. You are welcomed to upload your own too!

What is being said above are not meant to be "instrutions" to be followed strictly, but rather some ideas for reference. It would be interesting if the blog itself evolves in its own way organically, or arrive to a point that it becomes… Who knows?

*you don’t think you can be objective on music matters, do you?
