2. My feel about the concert


This is my 3rd time participating in a concert, and also my first time participating in an opera concert. I
was introduced by my music teacher and I know about this concert. I was very impressed with the song
"Scale Scale" performed by Ms. Lappalainen. this is a song about the love story of Emilia and Otello. This
is a tragic love story between two people. The song was performed very well by the singer, it gave me a
very special feeling, I deeply sympathize with the story of the two characters in this song. And I hope
next time if I have a chance, I will continue to go to the opera concert next time.
