Rondeau means "to return" in French. Indeed, I will return to Ngee Ann Concert Band (NPCB) as an emcee. I guess this is a good way to end my journey with NPCB as a student even though I really miss playing music with them.

I spent a short 1.5 years with NPCB and I will never forget the friendships forged, the fun we had, everything.

NPCB holds 2 main concerts annually, along with other performances and competition. Unfortunately, I am unable to commit thus I dropped out.

My first concert with NPCB was in July 2009 in my freshman year. Ripieno which means "all together" in Italian, was a sell out concert at Victoria Concert Hall.

The repertoire for Ripieno included 15 pieces like Gustav Holst - 1st Suite in Eb, Mussorgsky - Night on a Bare Mountain and Coldplay - Viva la Vida.
