Hey guys! Today's choir practice was a awesome one, what do you think? We witnessed the SOTA stage for the very first time when Miss Yong showed us the photos and it consisted of orange, wood and more wood! Therefore, we should have a rough idea of the place and we must do our best!
To refresh your memory, we practiced at the quadrangle today. Remember the sound produced? Well, this will be a guide to how the sound would be at SOTA. Make sure that you can hear the person beside you. If not, ask that person to sing louder so that both of you would be able to encourage and support each other! Also, try to interact with your choir mates from the other sections especially in the French song.
Here are some of the things Miss Yin mentioned today that we should take note:
French Song: Dynamics! There are different dynamics at different parts of the song and they must be obvious!
Japanese Song: Remember to CHEW your words. Also, the intensity of the song must be present throughout the song.
The Wind: PRONUNCIATION! Please remember to pronounce the words of the sing properly and make it song like English and not Singlish!
Overall, I'm glad that Miss Yin mentioned that our sound was good today but we must not get complacent! We must keep on striving to work harder and after all, there are only 11 more days left to our big performance so why don't we focus and put our efforts into these 11days and our performance on the SYF stage. It will also be the Sec4s last performance with us, so why don't we do our best as a farewell gift to the Sec4s and wish them all their best for their upcoming major exams!
Please be reminded that there will be no morning practice tomorrow [5/4/2011]. Morning practice will resume on Wednesday and it will be Physical Training, so be sure to report in your PE attire. Also, report to choir on Friday with your hair up in a bun. This only applies to those with long hair and a hair net is required. For girls with short hair, clip up your fringe!
