was watching the recital tape on sat... realised i made more mistakes than i remembered. but it's okay. i'm going to work harder and i'll make sure i won't be lost halfway through the pieces again. it's a brand new day!
went to sajc band concert yesterday, didn't know of anybody going but when i reached there i found that crystal was also going and i met jiehui too. the concert was not bad... they were basically quite in tune and their intonation is quite good. some out-of-tune notes were quickly re-adjusted. just that they sound a bit murky, i think it's the same prob as tj band... too many people but not listening enough. i was more impressed with their musical in the second half. instead of doing a short skit thingy with a small stage band like our concert, they did a longer musical involving a bigger group of instruments (about half the band i think). the script was funny, lame and interesting... hahaha... the acting was good, the main cast's and narrator's singing were not that bad too (though they were singing familiar songs with lyrics replaced by cheesy lines). the arrangement was quite professionally done... either the arranger is rather skilled, or the pieces chosen modulated into each other well, or both. on top of all that i think it was really entertaining and like jiehui said, it's mainly what draws the non-music people to sa band concerts.
