16-3-12 Friday

Today is supposed to be the day of the assessment but since we were not ready yet, Mr.John postponed it to next week Monday so i should start practicing at my best so that on the day, i wouldn't have a hard time performing on the day itself. Again, we practiced for the whole session as a small group

12-3-12 Monday

This session is the same as usual, we practiced the songs for the orchestra, nothing really new compared from the previous sessions. But we shouldn't be too relaxed because the real assessment for us to play as an orchestra is coming up in a few weeks time

9-3-12 Friday

Today we practiced the orchestra as usual. Minuet and salute d'amor. Mr.John taught us about the guitar part, which is pretty hard to learn and understand at first. But as Mr.John played, we understood bit by bit. That was what we did all day. We even practiced it during the instrument session

5-3-12 Monday

Today we practiced the song from yesterday again, the one we are going to use for the orchestra, salute d'amor. The first official practice was recorded and posted on the web. Today, we were also given another piece by Luigi Bocchelini called minuet. It was quite difficult but quite catchy,

2-3-12 Friday

Today, we practiced the song we were going to use in our orchestra performance which was salute d'amor . I could only read the first part and some of the second part, which i think was already good enough. I think i should be posting videos of me practicing soon and so i wouldnt be left behind with my blog.

24-2-12 Monday

Today, we submitted our assessments which was a booklet about the romantic era music. It was quite tiring and challenging to make the booklet but then, after it is done, it was quite relieving. Afterwards, some of the other groups did their presentations and that took the time left for the theory music session. Afterwards, because we did not have instrument class, Mr.John and Mr.Herry told us to update our blogs because it was going to be assessed. Next time, I will update my blogs and practice songs that Mr.John told us to do.

Today, it was my groups turn to do the slide show presentation because last time, our presentation was saved in mac computer so it couldn't be read. My group mates were Heidy and Blanka. We used audio samples of the famous songs composed so that my friends and teachers can understand what we are trying to present. In instrument class, Mr.John reminded us that there was a booklet to be due next session, on monday
