hey
good to know u guys do read blog
so here's a update
after three wks of band break we finally had band again!mr gloss/glauze(wadeva) came to see our practise and did sm BIG changes to our sound n everyth.d brass sounded nice n loud n d clars improve too.ivanhoe sounded great when he asked us 2 use our imagination. i can realy feel wad he said bout d knight n everyth.think u guys can too right?d wonderful ting bout band muic is tt many differentthings happenin at same plc n everth tells a story.wadeva he said on tt day improved our band sound but whether we want to do it long term is up to us so work on it!
d nxt day was 4 self prac n sectionals.saw alot of ppl practisin real hard..KEEP IT UP!!! went 4 lunch n had full band taken by ms ng(hehe) d balance was nt there but it was loud n sound was big.certain parts lik 2nd movement of ivanhoe was messy n nids 2 be work on.had drills for a little while after tt.long tym since drills?sec1s seem 2 4gt everyth.think we hv to do more drills now.one thing which really irritated d bls were d sec1s attitude.is it so difficlt to shout?its nt even shoutin its jz speakin loud.sm of u can even smile when being punished.n when d whole band was marchin on s spot, u guys think its funny to compete with d others n disrupt d timing?tts a stupid thing 2 do.it does nt benefit any1.in d end u guys jz ended up marchin real long.one band one sound.how can u ppl play 2gether when u cant march 2gether?
anyway sch startin soon..those who hv nt finished hw, jiayou!!once sch reopens there wun b much time for practisin.our rehaersal n SCH is on 13th feb.we only hv ONE chance to prac there.so pls dun go there n ork out notes or anyth like tt.1go there n perform like u will do in syf.d acoustics there r very differeht frm VCH or our band room so take this chance to go n gt used to it.in order 2 do tt u must know ur parts well
oh n one thing i noticed.sm sec1s r coming back 2 practise regularly.ppl like sherry yan ting irene kenny timothy.keep it up guys!!
