Made some phone calls and realized that some of us peeps are losing faith and hope.
Here's a little something which i hope could boost our morale a little:

Hello people, let me now condense all the announcement into a post that is relatively short and sweet.




Achievement Day will be on 3 April'09.
We will be singing Natsu and Where there is Light in the Soul.
As you can see, we are very very very short of time.
Schedule on Friday is really really really packed.
So please, take initiative and prevent time wastage on Friday by doing warm-ups on your own, getting everything (yes, everything) done by 2pm.

Juniors and choir mates who have just joined us, please rmb to get your shoes.
And peeps, please be kind souls by passing the message around especially to peeps who were away/on MC today. Your help will be greatly appreciated. (^-^)

Peeps, do have a good rest during the weekends.
When the new term starts, we hope to see more of (o^-^o) faces instead of (z_z) faces, worse, (T-T) faces, alright.

Goodnight for now.

With love,
wip.

Hello everyone. =)




This is what we discussed during today's practice (before Miss Ong came) :
What to do when you:
- have asthma attack on stage...?
Save the person please!!! Quoted from Miss Rozi: "The person's life is more important than SYF!"

- want to sneeze....?
Look down and cover your mouth as you sneeze.

- fall down....?
Get up and continue walking as though nothing happened.. =)

- faint on stage....?
SAVE THAT PERSON!!!

- want to cough...?
Control and try not to cough. Only cough after finish singing.

- want to throw up....?
Cover your mouth, for god's sake!

- have a tummy upset....?
Prevention is better than cure. You should not have eaten something that will upset your stomach.

- have hiccups....?
Stop singing. We don't want to hear funny voices on stage. -.-

- itch....?
Stroke the area quickly and settle it without affecting your singing.

- let out gas....?
Don't laugh. Seriously. The smell will diffuse itself quickly.

- see the lights go out....?
Just stop singing because you can't see Miss Ong conducting. Don't scream, please.

- want to cry....?
Control your tears. Don't get so emotional...



That's all for this entry.
To the Sec 1s and 2s, have a good rest and see you guys on Friday! =D

Hey, Choir!

Here to give you guys the 411 on Choir matters:

1. SYF is on 17 April. Although it's on one of the first few days of the SYF, we're coming in in the afternoon. So unlike the previous SYF, we don't have to wke up bright and early to prepare. Don't fret, Choir. Our dream of Gold is not that far away. We can do it!

2. Thanks to Gregory, we can now download Where There is Light in the Soul and Natsu into our computers. Thanks a million! :DD

The links are:

Where There Is Light In the Soul


Natsu


3. The sec 1s and 2s will be going to OLE until Wednesday. We'll miss them, won't we? So let's work hard so that they have something to look forward to on Friday. :)

4. Achievement Day is on 3rd April. For the newcomers, this will good exposure for you guys. Seniors, it's time to tell our buddies the "Dos and Don'ts" of performing on stage.

5. There'll be another audition at the end of this month. All the best to everyone! For those who have been asked to "don't sing first" while we were practising, this will be a great opportunity. If you guys need help, please seek the help of your SLs and ASLs.

So that's about it. This week's news condensed into 5 important messages.

Keep working hard, Choir. We can do it. ^^

Hello everyone.
I was researching for THE WHITE HORSES when I came across these (from this website) and decided to share with you guys:

Judging Criteria
50% - Technique
Articulation
Diction
Dynamics
Intonation
Rhythm
Tone

50% - Musicianship
Balance
Blend
Expression
Interpretation
Phrasing
Style


Awards
• Gold with Honours 85% and above
• Gold 80% to 84%
• Silver 70% to 79%
• Bronze 60% to 69%
• Certificate of Participation 59% and below


Now you guys know the judging criteria already,
you guys should know what to focus on. =)
It is definite that no matter how difficult the songs seem to be,
if we put in the effort, we can clinch at least the silver medal.
So let's work hard, jiayou and gambatte for SYF! =P

Oh yeah, good luck for your auditions tomorrow!
Rest well and good night, everyone!



P.S. I don't mean to be racist when I wrote "jiayou" and "gambatte", okay?
