Happy Place, Happy Space
We last visited Toa Payoh Town Park about a year ago. We ran through this delightful little park to the plaintive strains of the erhu played by a maestro.
We were delighted to hear The Maestro play again on this return visit.
I looked for an erhu video that came close to what The Maestro was playing but was not successful. I did, however, chance upon this video of a cover of a song I like very much that is played on the instrument.

Thank you for including the video of the young man playing the erhu. What a haunting, beautiful sound. (I like Despacito too!). Now I can almost imagine the magical experience of hearing it echoing through the park. I very much appreciated the past photos of The Maestro too. Long may he bless the park’s visitors.
