The National Arts Council's National Chinese Music Competition season is back this year! However, the standards seemed to have degraded. Most of them were either not prepared or had forgotten the scores. Yangqin this year quite promising though. Especially for the Open finals, 2 'black horses' surprisingly played well. Good for them to clinch the 1st and 2nd placings. Can hear that they'd improved alot since the past couple of years. Looks like I've got to catch up! =p

The MSCO concert is around the corner. Can say that they're still not prepared for it; and there are another 4-5 days of practices left. =x Hopefully they can be awakened...soon.
