Hey all, this is me.
Yay so SYF is just next wednesday,
And if you look at the results so far,
Abit out of the ordinary.

I'm sure at this point of time everyone's struggling with hw and stuff,
But just think about it,
This SYF is the LAST SYF for like 70% of the ppl on our section.
That's quite a big fraction.
And You know mr wong always say stuff like "this band got alot of potential....just need reminders."
It is really not that difficult to remind yourselves.

It has been a long way for many of us,
And like a major exam,
We've prepared like hell just for that teeny weeny measly 15+ minutes.
And since we've made it this fayr, just go all out, all the way, 5 days more only.

One guy once told me
Once there was a bimbo who needed to swim from one island to another.
That bimbo swam exactly half-way and swam back =.=
But for our case we'd be worse than bimbos,
CUZ WE'VE BEEN AT IT FOR 5MONTHS AND THERE'S ONLY 5 DAYS LEFT!!
If you're a mathematical person like me,
we're 5/150 X100% = 97.67% there!!
We're that close!
Oh, and speaking of close, remember our score for NBC last yeah?
Remember that feeling?
Yeah, that feeling totally sucks.
Trust me nobody wants to feel that ever again.
So must work hard these last 5 days hor.
Full attention,
Full concentration,
And a clear, simple mind =)

Btw, congratz to the following ppl:
Jianheng (for being band major)
Huimin and alan (for being RIC heads)
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA,
That was a fun april 1st.

Goodluck goodnight and goodbye,
=)

uh so the cutted parts which are not written on the scanned scores are
:
F - 8bars after H.
Bar 111 and 112 cut
Bar 123 and 124 cut
Bar148-N REST, but play the two quavers before N.

Play everything else.

2009-01-03T04:39:00.000-08:00

Hey the that thing is one post one song so may be abit messed up but look awhile should be can find the parts you're playing.
So the current arrangement is:
ATOPA: 1st germaine caroline Xinyu, 2nd Jianheng geoffery sisui, huimin wanshan Travis.
Ovrtre2: 1st sisui geoffery Travis, 2nd caroline Huimin germaine, 3rd Xinyu wanshan jianheng.
*yawns*
Uh from what i've experienced, though this may not apply to everyone,
We should finnish memorizing it 2wks before 26th jan (CNY).
Uh, reason being cuz procrastination is our common enemy, yeah?
And to make sure everyone gets both memorized by somewhere along 16th jan,
I'll check.
Not sure how this may help but, OMG there's other sections that plan to memo by 14th i think.
Walao 14th, on top of all that common tests and rubbish..
And err, take note is sections that plans to do so, not individuals.
Cool section spirit man.
How about let's follow suit?
But meantime, Goodluck and goodnight..

Hey everyone, i just want to remind all of you that:

What Mr.Wong said is hell true but i just want to highlight some stuff that are extremely applicable some certain people that i want to specifically point out, so mind my bluntness.

He mentioned our school lacking speed and efficiency in both muscial and administrative aspects. I just give you all a very stunning example, one fine day:
Me: Hey some1 can i shift you to play some other part?
some1: but i already play 1st for so many times liao
sum1 else: why don't you shift someone else la
someone else else: eeeeee, dowan

malaysian band sl during advt of prof. alx, (SIGHT READ PIECE FOR THEM!!)
alot of them heard optional then they opted out.
Their sl: (in chinese) eh come play leh
alot of people moves down without question or argument.

yeah, you guys get the point.

Next stunning thing:
Our sectionals always takes 5-10 mins DECIDE on a song..
Sectionals on 15 dec:
me: let's play under the flag.
them: orh ok.
same for ross roy AND merry widow.

It is not that argument is not good.
Argument promotes creativity,
but we all know that beyond that argument is just a waste of time.
And we're currently wasting more time than we're supposed to.

I THINK i know the reason behind all this poor atitudes.
I shall start an experiment :)

That's all,
Because it is not what's written here that matters most.

2008-12-08T07:58:00.000-08:00

Incase you don't know but you should and must,
There's band practice on saturday (13.11.08)
Which to help you remember is on day of the bbq.
8am to god knows, somewhere around 12-1 (quoted)
Um so you guys wan some

NEW ARTICLE TO READ!!!

As the dog days of summer come to a close and the fall season begins, I started thinking about the concept of practice and the many ways and means to improve as an instrumentalist. I think many people make a mistake of thinking any time spent playing an instrument by themselves is practicing. If the object of a practice session is to cover a certain amount of material in a certain amount of time and you finish sounding exactly the same as when you started, I think you've wasted your time unless you played everything perfectly. Over the years I have told students countless times, "I would rather have you play 2 bars perfectly, than play the whole book in the same way you always play." Repetition is only good when some new improvement is added to your repertoire. To cover material with the same flaws in your playing is not only a waste of time, but actually teaches you to be satisfied with the status-quo.

I want you to start thinking of your practice room as a research and development laboratory where you try out new experiments and solidify the desirable concepts you already have. Rather than just putting in practice time without any goal in mind, every session should have a specific goal. There are many different goals possible in a practice session. There's maintenance practice, where you just try to stay in shape with the level you have attained. This is useful when under a time constraint. However this should never become the everyday mode of practice. There is audition preparation, where you take the level you have attained and apply it to basically excerpts. This will not improve your playing at a fundamental level, because it doesn't allow you to get to enough of an elemental level, because of the necessary concentration of performing excerpts, which require different styles and note perfect execution. If you have a recital to prepare for, that is not going to improve your playing in a fundamental way either, because you will learn the repertoire using the skills you have, rather than improving those skills. The only way to to improve those basic skills is to isolate them down to their most simple level. Some of the most valuable practice I've ever done would probably be classified as "noodling." Example; taking two notes, like slurring middle G# to middle B and spending 10 minutes seeing how smooth I can play that slur. Trying many different speeds of moving the slide or the air, until I found the absolute best possible slur, maybe one that no one ever heard before, not even me. But it was in my head, or if it wasn't, I heard it in the many experiments I did and said to myself, "thats the one I want." Then I spent time getting good at being able to do that slur by itself, before I tried to put it in a musical context. I have also done that with things like articulation, vibrato, multiple tonguing, etc.

Some things you can get good at by just spending time doing them. Take high register for instance. If you want to get good at playing high, simply spend a lot of time playing high. This applies to low register playing as well. This brings me to the most important idea in this article; your practice room is your laboratory. You will have successes and failures in your laboratory. The failures are just as important as your successes, because that's how progress is made. When you start working on high or low registers which are not in your normal range, it's going to sound bad at first, but that's what your practice room is for. If you push the envelope it should be in the privacy of your laboratory, not in public.

When I'm working on loud playing, (which I don't enjoy, but necessary)I do it in the privacy of my practice room, and I push it way beyond the level I'm going to perform at. I wouldn't want anyone to hear me do this, but I am trying to improve my skill in this area, and I do it in my lab, not in public. Many times I have said to someone who played something for me, "is that the way you want that to sound?" The answer is usually "no." I will then say, " lets do something about it." Then we will take the problem down to it's most basic level. The student always wants to go ahead and not really spend time on that particular aspect, but I always make them go back and completely find an answer to that one thing, which is the beginning of the new player we are trying to create.

um... adding on to rachel's post. i feel that la, is like, we cannot hog onto the same parts over and over again. lets say A plays 1st for alvamar,then younger B plays 3rd for alvamar, but when A graduates, B is forcedto take over. i mean la, ya, um, we have to face it sooner or later. now itsnot the problem of making your life easier or whatsoever, experience iswhat makes us grow what. if you just hog on to a same part your neverget your deserved experience. although 3rd is usually easier and havelower notes than 1st or 2nd, but the problem is, do you play it well.sometimes the low is too low for you to hit and even if you hit, you don'tproduce a good sound, then what for you play that part. then you mustask yourself, DO YOU DESERVE getting that part? oh, anotherproblem. lets say A is using a standard MLbore instrument. its a standardsize for most of us, but you don't project, in other words, you are inaudible.One fine sunny day, Mr Wong imported a new Bach Stradivarius 180Seriesmodel 52 Lbore(which means bigger bore). he chose you to play it, andwhen you play it, no sound come out, because larger bore instrumentsneed more air to play. morale of the story is, we must have high adaptability,like we must adapt to all kinds of instrument or hall conditions fast, causeVictoria Concert Hall is a bloody dry place, if we were to play at our presentvolume, even with caroline blasting away, our section would be inaudible.we must also take note of articulations so forth and stuff!!!
SOME ARTICLES TO READ:
I have three specific things to talk about this month that apply to most every musician. The first is the concept of the crescendo. I like to think of a crescendo as a sound that gets bigger and fatter as it gets louder. The timbre doesn't change, it just gets bigger. It's as though your instrument ate a big meal and got wider. This is the type of crescendo I try to impart to the ensembles I work with. Visualize a different kind of crescendo by taking the index and second finger to form a V and aim them as if you wanted to poke someone in the eyes. This is the kind of crescendo I hear very often that results in a sound that changes from mellow to hard as it increases in volume. A much more musical approach is a sound that grows wider and bigger without that obvious forward push that can assault the listener. Think of a forte that is 100 yards away, and moves evenly closer to the desired dynamic. I often tell students to play something marked forte, piano, and then tell them to play the forte with the exact same sound of the piano. The space in between the two dynamics would be the crescendo.I have three specific things to talk about this month that apply to most every musician. The first is the concept of the crescendo.

I often tell students to play something marked forte, piano, and then tell them to play the forte with the exact same sound of the piano. The space in between the two dynamics would be the crescendo.

The second item on my menu this month is that most beautiful of articulations, the forte-piano. If there ever was a divergence of opinion, listen to the various versions of what people interpret as a forte-piano in an ensemble. No two seem to be the same and yet this is one of the most important tools we have as musicians. I visualize the forte-piano as something like the shape of a comet. It has a large dense, brightly glowing head, which gives off a luminous and long tail that decreases gradually into nothing. Of course there are various sizes of the glowing head, from small and brilliant to large and slightly less brilliant, all producing a beautiful multi-colored tail. No other articulation can result in such a pure resultant sound. Developing this aspect of the musical vocabulary is one of the essential things someone can do on the way to producing the best sound possible on a particular instrument. Being able to produce a pure, round forte-piano in various sizes, meaning various dynamics, providing the forte is always round and pure, never hard or brittle, gives a player a tremendous advantage in sound and style. As with anything, spending time and isolating this one articulation so as to develop it independently, away from normal music making, will pay large dividends.

My third and final entree is learning how, and the importance of, playing to the space you are performing in. A common problem is practicing in a small space (after all, how many of us have concert halls to practice in,) and then playing to the same space when auditioning in a large space. I don't mean just playing louder either. I mean being able to fill a large space with your sound, just like you fill every nook and cranny (I hope) of your horn. You need to learn to fill a large space without forcing, and this takes thought and practice directly related to this skill. My first item on this months menu would be of help in this regard. Of course the reverse is also true, being able to fill a small space with your sound without overfilling, if you have been practicing in a larger space.

hey sexy trumpet section!

I've been reading your posts& ya,
some stuff are quite concerning.
I'm sorry if i make this blunt& all but i hope you guys'll make some amendments.

Firstly, I miss you all&band very much. Dont doubt me when i say this! ;DD

Secondly,
I looked at the parts arrangement& yea.
Just a suggestion la.
I hope you guys can some how give the juniors more of a chance?
I know caroline's a strong player but think abt it, dont tire her out.
I know the sec2s cant really play tht well but yea, let them have a go at it alone?
Caroline's good but whats gonna happen when she's gone eh?

Sec2s&1s dont keep pushing parts away, when you get first parts, just take it.
Tell yourself, you can make the piece sound nice.
Tell the world you can play well,
Tell the world you can do it!
Seriously, if you're willing to work,
I'm sure the sec3s will help you in anyway they can.
& ya, if the sec3s arent free,
theres always mr pek& mrwong. ;DD
I know its partially my fault for not settg a good eg& playing 2nd& 3rd all the time.
Third family, now i'm gone you gotta grow up!
& get to top of the heap!
So yea, jiayous alright, i know you juniors can& will make it!
Do our section proud! ((:
You're our future,
dont disappoint us! ;DDD

Sec3s, nows the prime time of your life in sec sch band.
Please dont forget to render guidance to the juniors sec1s&2s when they need it.
When they need your help please help them.
I know some of you will be busy with all the comm stuff& all but yea.
Those without comm posts, you guys gotta be there for the section.
Our section needs it, badly.
The parts arrangement, caroline's playing 1st for nearly everyth!
I know our section's strength individually arent that good but yea, if you guys dont try you'll never know.

Try to think abt it,
abt how hq& me havent been really playing first for quite alot.
Maybe its high time you guys did the same.
I dont mean that you guys cant play first but why must it always be caroline? Why cant it be alan, huimin or sisui with the juniors.
Give her a break man, whether she wants it or nt she has to.
Me& Hq are gone alr, so yea sec3s if your skills still arent up to mark. BUCK UP.!

This is also specially for peeps with braces,
I knw its hard to play, i know it hurts ALOT.
But yea, i worked my way outta it with my braces.
So i bet you can too!
Pain is nothing bear with it and in no time, you'd get used to it.
Focus on getting a good sound with your braces on,
when you take it off, who knows.
You might be godly. ha ha. ((:
We're just like a jack-in-the-box,
Now with our bloody metal teeth we are just a plain box.
I cant wait till you guys remove it.
You'd be a SURPRISE! ha ha.
Like what mr wong said,
having braces might not be a bad thing.
You'll learn how to play high notes without all the squeezing!
If i can reach top C with my braces,
SO CAN YOU!
Braces peeps& peeps who are gonna get braces, 'brace' yourselves& dont give up!
GOGOGO! ((:

Oh& just a tip for all of you.
Focus more on getting a good sound.
Techiniques wise you also can prac but the idea is.
When you play crazy scales& etudes,
you must still sound nice.
Thats the hard part.
In slow or fast music,
you still gotta sound nice.
When we need the PUNCH,
you guys gotta deliver the PUNCH 200% not abit more& not abit less.
when we need the SOFT& GENTLE,
you guys gotta give us what it takes to be the most gentle angel on the planet.
So, work on it.
I know you guys can do it, got faith in you all!

Sorry this post is so long~ ha ha.

2008-06-27T09:28:00.000-07:00

ok, self explanatory.

2008-06-27T07:44:00.000-07:00

YAYNESS,
My first post as SL,
And even so, it is still my first post.
Aiya ppl lazy mah.

OK, i seriously have nothing to post about.
OH YAR.
Time to get old and naggy.
Firstly, I have almost rearranged the parts for all the songs,
And i wan to thank the following ppl:
WANSHAN AND GEOFFERY
yay they both be my consultants,
minus the super expensive fee.
AND HUIQI (lol, ppl "gone" liao still comb back help)
she gimme the list of stuff so i got something to work on.
caroline, cuz she so nice willing to shift here shift there
UNLIKE X**Y*, complain so much=.=
"i dowan this dowan that"
Seriously, i wonder how can weijie manage.

Secondly, photos are with ALAN.
Hurray so stop bugging me for it.
As in, seriously, he first to ask me so i give him lor.
And anyway, if you guys are thinking of sending through msn,
PLEASE ABANDON THAT IDEA.
Unless you dun mind sending over 1.3++k photos then you win liao lor.

Thirdly,
WHY TODAY EVERONE RUN AWAY?!!?
Next time see stuff inorganized must (obviously) organize them.
Like today travis ended up keeping everything,
minus files (by wanshan)
minus two stands (by hm)
ok, im not trying to be calculative but please dun make me be.
and sec3s, you guys see ppl talk must call them shut up,
especially the lower sec(like duh, who else)
talk ABIT can.
But when ppl like me or other sec3s tell you please keep quiet you know something is wrong.
So yar, especially some *ahem* ppl keep talking.
And on top of all that, pls dun bully or annoy whoever beside you,
i used to enjoy doing that,
but the keyphrase is USED TO.
And err, everyday discipline has a very directly indirect impact on performance's discipline.
Like mr wong say, you cant wait for performance that day then tell yourself "i wan discipline"
Cuz even if you want, doesn't mean you can.
And even if you can, doesn't mean will be consistent.
And even if consistent, doesn't mean will be good.
And even if good, doesn't mean will not badly affect your playing,
And even if it doesn't, you'll look really awkward and uneasy and natural.
And even if you do, it doesn't give you the excuse of not exercising consistent self-discipline.

Anyway just want to let you all know that Huiqi is rather sad,
Because she jealous you all cry for sandy nvr cry for her.
So yar, go spam her msn or smth,
Flood her email with love msgs.

And also,
SANDY I WILL MISS YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
oh wait i won't,
But rather i will remember you.
Ya, you know the rest.

Your welcome,
ss.

2008-06-24T07:34:00.000-07:00

07 March, FRIDAY

2008-03-07T05:24:00.000-08:00

well nothing in particular today. anyway, recording is going to be finished soon! do your best for the rest of it &give it your best shot! ;D well, i hope that the blog will not die when rachel and i graduate. it'll be a place to stay in contact with yall. HAHA.

anyway, here are some pictures i took today(during the 10mins break ;X):

the song that we recorded today.

the animals TRIO! :D

xinyu's slippers.

our VERY-disgusting dustbin.

sandy looking super buay song.

huimin seems to be the main char whenever i take pictures in bandroom -.-

xinyu doing her usual torture to my (poor)elmo. >:( GAHH. lol.

do your best tmrw for rest of Jericho. Play it nicely once through out so that we can end it once and for all. *winks.

goodnight! :D

tpt section rocks! WOO.

GAMBATE!

2008-03-01T03:01:00.000-08:00

YES. my com's finally back. :D there are going to be so many pictures today! im a little depressed that we've wasted the band's time on tuning today. well, these are some suggestions as to what you can do to improve your tuning skills:

1. listen to more band recordings. imitate the good stuff!

2. COPY! listen to professional players. (e.g. Mr pek)

3. learn to identify what's in tune and what's not from other sections when mr wong is picking on them. dont be a log and do nthing while mr wong picks on other sections! it will be tough when u first start on it. dont be discouraged. DONT BE AFRAID TO MAKE MISTAKES! it's when u learn when u make mistakes. it is also when u make a mistake, you realise that what you're doing is actually wrong. making a mistake is better than not trying at all.

4. Individuals. it is a good time when u find wat you're weak and strong in. if u find that you're always out of tune when u play a particular note, take note of it, and work on it!

5. you can also listen to ur tuners. hum the note, think of it before u play.

as you know, im also not really that good in tuning. thus i cant really help u guys. you must b real disciplined to solve tuning problems. (that applies for evry other thing too.) solve a problem when u see it!

NEXT, some add-ons to SISUI'S BDAY! ;D

the main culprit(s) of all our disfigured faces. SANDY&ALAN. ahem!

see how bad it is?

it looks like geoff enjoys being disfigured. ><

the poor cake.

that's when Greed comes into place... ;X

the BIRTHDAY BOY! happy birthday once again!

retribution. HAHA.

enjoying the cake.

tsktsk. just look at the BOTH of them.

SOME RANDOM PICS I TOOK TODAY:

WHAO.

wanshan must have been looking at YK. ;X

:DD

this was wat alan actually did when he tried to talk to me. -.- (while my camera was in ready position)

LOL. hm and alan looks super buaysong in this picture. &geoff looks like he's the victim; protected by HM the wonderwoman! woos.

to end today's post,

dear section, continue to work hard. especially when there are so many people in our section, it will be more difficult to work together. but when u do, u'll see me and rachel smiling happily, &saying, "hey look, that's my section!" know that there's a time to play and be serious. and for those who are taking common tests, good luck and study hard! all the best. &geoff, get well soon! (stop sneezing. ^^)

2007-10-27T21:40:00.000-07:00

HELLO.

i can finally log in yea finally. woo i see some tags here and there, not bad.. :DD

actually wanted to post ytd BUT. well, nbm a post is alrdy up, wishing rachel HAPPY BIRTHDAY. ;next time we shall get the whole section to sing a bday song for ya ;D

hey can yall include ur names when yall post? o.o seems abit weird to me while reading.

anyway today i just wan to mention some things.

firstly,

THE SEC ONES. though u guys have got into main band, bt please do not stop improving ! i see that during combined u guys are just playin for the the sake of playing &not to mention also talking. (sometimes) well COMBINEDs are not for talking; that's for my second point. u guys shd be figuring out ur pieces.. :/ and also, learn how to count! (thinkin of how kiathui &yuhui counts --")

second, err yes yes. well it is good enough that i din say NO TALKING during combineds. i allow yall to talk, but, do not talk so loud! =.- we're a big section so .. little bit of here and there becomes one big chunk. this applies to everyone. well u can talk, but make it as little as possible &WHISPER. and if it's nt something very impt, please, please, talk abt it after combineds. i hope this message gets thru and i wil not have to bring it up again kayy.

and then PENCILS&BAGS&CASES. diaodiao.
aiyo. please take the initiative to clear them out of our section area. okay i can see some of yall doing that alrdy, not bad, keep it up. try to keep the area out of other stuff, yea. and yes, PENCILS, bring them with u during combineds, sectionals, tutorials. they are essential for noting things down. bring ur own pencils! (not forgetting erasers too -.-)

next, will be just remembering the parts u are playing. try to rmbr them so u wld not have to refer to the paper every now and then.

also, get ready to play! sometimes i feel that everyone's just relying on one another to see when we're going to play; only then they lift their instruments. and whenever the baton is up, please kindly raise ur trumpets and get ready to play.

Got the pass - FINALLY!

Lalalalala what a random post..

Has anyone watched "batman begins" ?
Or anyone "batman returns" ?
Or anyone "Batman....AGAIN" ?

I WANT A SECTION OUTING
But everyone's busy with upcoming exams. I dunno about the other lv's, but sec2 EOY starts on the 3rd week of term 4.. =(
All thx to the O's..

IF there evr is a section outing (hopefully), can it be @ Bugis?
So i can have the convenience of walking there, can save some bucks on transport..

TRUMPET JIAYOU
