School Concert!

It was a chorus and percussion ensemble concert today. So tired after so many hours of rehearsals and normal school lesson. This morning in Mr Goh's orchestration lesson, i'm really on the verge of falling asleep right in front of him cos i'm really very tired.

Pract the Chaconne with Minyu, felt so bad...my notes are still so untidy...sorry... partner.....
I"ll try my best oki?
Then went for my group discussion on the mozart symphonies.... for an hour then left with 20 min lunch time...went opposite of school to eat.. gobbled my food actually.

Report at theatre at 2pm....Warm up and start singing....Cham cham....wat's wrong with everyone?? no sound, I can only hear Peixin and very soft from the rest..........there are some ppl who just refuse to open their mouth. They either chose the piece they want to, to sing or even they sing, they will be out of pitch, come in at the wrong time...don't understand...

Rehearsed till 3pm, followed by an hour break, but the classmate in the Chamber choir had to continue...goodness the had been singing since 11am....all of them really tired.
At 4pm, another hour of rehearse, when we sang the west side story, we have a section with lyric 'I feel pretty, I am entrancing...' Mr Goh just don't understand why can't we be happy and felt that way.... but frankly, we are all so tired by work....the yr 0 who don't have much workload don't want to sing, wat can we do??
Rehearsal ened at 5.30pm

Went for dinner with lynn, lixin, yifang and minyu, a unique combination.... hahaha.... we had delifrance...and again i'm disappointed with their food... I'll try not to eat their stuff again....

Concert at 7.30pm, we gathered at 7pm. Audiences filled up the audience seats (middle section) rather full. Quite surprise with the amount of ppl that come. We start with all the mass then follow by some romantic german, spainish love song then ended with rock gospel. It sounded all right which is good.... hope Mr G is happy with our singing today.

David came to watch the concert. So ask him for feedback, he said the programme too dry for layman like him. He said that the percussion pieces, he heard before. Then the said he can't stand so many masses music, he kept fidgeting about and pretty bored. Forturnately, there light hearted and romantic ones behind.
He also said that he like xiaoye and emmanuel's playing alot cos theirs have feelings.... haah....Even an audience can see tat, I wonder if that Lecturer can see that anot?? piano accomp teach wat??
Is so unfair to untalented students

On our way home, David told me beside the percussion music, he also heard and have the cd for the piece 'Wade for water' sang by Chamber choir. Wow... I"m shocked, then he said the first church in Australia sang in chorus way during the service. This is so cool...

Usually, I should be drinking till quite high alreadi at this time after school concert. Kinda of our norm to go drinking... but this year without Glenn and the amount of workload, it so imposisible.

Anyway, Good is over!
