Reflection April 20th 2012, Friday

Today, we didn't really do much. We watched some of our classmates redo their solo singing assessment because they didn't suceed at first. I think all of them did way better than their first time :) I hope they all pass. The majority of the class haven't recieved the solo singing scores but the ones who didnt have to redo got at least 6, i think. But i passed! Yay! The woodwind/saxophone instrument class had to share a room with us because their teacher was absent. We all played the A Major scale. It didn't sound so good because we had different instruments, we never did that and we only had about 10 minutes left so we were all kinda rushing :)

Reflection April 18th 2012, Wednesday

Today, we had our solo singing assessment where we had to sing "Santa Lucia" an Italian opera song. I think i did pretty good and way better than last time. I was nervous and memorising the words was pretty easy but the challenge was to have enough confidence to stand infront of the whole class and actually sing the song. We also got a new reflection booklet that Mr. Herry made for all of us. From now on, we are required to write our reflections in the booklet and then copy it or interpret it more on our blogs. I think it's a good idea so we won't forget what to write when we get home, but it requires us to exert more effort. Thanks Mr. Sadrakh :) :p

Sincerely yours, the author <3

Reflection April 13th 2012, Friday

Today, we only had instrument class for awhile because we were practicing for our singing assessment. I partly memorized the song already but i have some difficulties in remebering the melody. I'm nervous already and dont want to sing solo because the pressure will make me forget all the lyrics and everything :S nevertheless, i will still continue to practice and hopefully get a high score :) We also had to read our baroque composers booklet again to get ready for the upcoming assessment after the singing assessment which is (yup u guessed it) about the Baroque era. I'm not too nervous about that one because it's just a written assessment and we dont have to perform. We also have a baroque music performance assessment soon*. I will learn everything though and hopefully ace them all.

*note: I do NOT really know all the different dates of each assessment too many! (it's on the assessment table though) :)

TERM 4 Reflection April 11th 2012, Wednesday

Today was the first day of music for term 4 :D and we're off to a good start too. Mr Sadrakh gave us our new assessment of the term which will take place next week. It's safe to say that i am very scared because the assessment is next week, the song is in ITALIAN and we have to sing SOLO!!!! :S But the good news is that we got our scores for this music reflection blog and the baroque composers booklets back from last term. I'm absolutely gobsmacked at my music reflection blog score because.... I got 8/8! I think it is appropriate based on all the effort i put into doing this blog I'm sorry if some of my posts are shorter than usual. I hope i can keep it up for this term too :) and the solo singing? Well, just wish me luck ;)
