16 days!!!!!

hello reader,
you must be wondering what in the world does "16 days!" mean.
as of today (4.7.2010) there are only 16 days left before the sibf performers will leave for Singapore and participate in the sibf competition.
tick-tock, tick-tock, time is slipping away, people!
so before
you waste precious time and later regret because you could have done much better, take out those metronomes and tuners and start practising!


yes, metronomes and tuners. they may look unimportant and it's annoying to practise slowly and painstakingly to get every note right, but really, it's worth the effort. nothing comes easy, and everyone must work hard to achieve the aim of winning the competition (hey, no pressure ;p)
anyway, improvement is the only way to go, so ALL THE BEST!
remember all the pointers and tips sir and Mr. Lim have given, like the SATB triangle and the dynamic gradient, and practise smart.
not to forget another gadget invented to help us along,

the harmony director! it can show how an individual note fit into complete chords and thereby guiding one how to tune the note accordingly. so, arm yourself with these things, and make use of every minute to practise and get every little detail right!

that said, do not forget that the ASEAN School Games opening ceremony parade is a week away so practise all the basics in marching and the 2 marching songs "hujan di tengahari" and "perro caliente"!

another reminder that on this friday (9.7.2010) an EGM will be held from 1245 to 1330 in the bandroom. see you there!
