Hello all.
Let's see. Total band practice you have this week is.... 16hrs45min (3+4+8+1.45).
What have you improved on?Let's count. Its 697Hours to SYF.
Are you ready?Let's think. How are you going to work smart as an individual/section level?
How? ***
Band exchange @ Nan Chiau was unsatisfactory. Personally, i took in consideration that you guys are tired? From the Speechday rehearsal under the scorching sun the day before (but this goes out to wind ensemble only!) The rest ------>should<----- be perfectly fine. Individually, you have to start pushing yourselves. If not, there's no way you can land a single body cell on OUR GOAL. That's just pure truth.
Right now, we have to start recharging our body batteries every single night. No more playing of psp/comp/tv/movies/conferences etc etc till late nights! If you keep doing this, you --->will not<--- get sufficient energy for the rest of the practices. You ----->need<----- energy! Do not bite your lips while eating/talking/laughing or whatsoever. This means you'll get an ulcer. Hahaha. Super painful! So becareful...!
People who are sick.
You know what to do.
------------------> Please get well soon (: <----------------------
Right now, the mother of all musician's problem; which is...................... INTONATION, is here. So, during sectionals, do on your melodic lines, find your respective neighbours who have the same part as you, and tune together, blend.
------->Egs:<--------
Flute & Clarinet.
Sax & Horn.
Trumpet & Clarinet / Sax.
Trombone & Eupho.
Tuba & Double bass.
