Entry title: Band Concert! :D
Date / Time : Saturday, February 28, 2009 / 5:30 AM
Today was the day of the
BAND CONCERT! :D
(i forgot what was the name of the concert heh)
We met in school at around 12.15, warm-ed up, then took the school bus to Singapore Conference Hall for practice. We got ourselves a cute dance-studio-like room with mirrors, which made us sound super good, but cos of the echos /: But Ms Sia said that if we could acheive that standard, we'd be considered good! (So there's hope after all yay :P)
Then at around 2.15pm we went to the actual place for rehearsing. Everyone was quite scared at that time for some reason, but I wasn't. Then when we were asked to go in, I SAW ALMOST THE ENTIRE HALL FULL OF BAND PEOPLE.
Which had an direct impact on me. No wonder everyone was so scared that time. I didn't pay attention whoops O: The 45 mins spent in there was so scary (to me heh) :D
Then at 6.30pm plus plus, after our Mcdonalds dinner, we prepared for the actual concert! :D While we were waiting at the entrance, Jiahui, Lynette, Hannah, Ruei Ern, Wen En, and Samantha came to visit us yaayyyyy! :D I am sooo sooo super happy you guys came hahahah yay! (certain potatoes couldn't make it for some reason I forgot D:)
Thanks for the red rose! So preeettyy yay thank youuu! :D
Our playing was quite disappointing though /: FLUTES WERE OUT OF TUNE GEEEEZZZZ. After all the time Ann and I spent trying to make the section sound okay ): Solo part was rather okay though. Thank goodness I didn't get so nervous until I couldn't hold long enough (refers to the Genting competition) O:
I think we played very few dynamics. At most, we had maybe mp to f? When the range ideally was supposed to be pp to fff? Or was it ppp. Ahh that's worse D:
All in all, it was a happy Band Concert! :D I hope that during SYF we can play twice better. With an extended range of dynamics! And a pro-er flute solo! And happy nice-sounding flutes that are IN TUNE. Heh, what a wonderful dream :D
...but dreams are meant to be acheived! So GO SNSB! Yeah! :D
