Heyy!

Choir concert was simply awesome ~ and there's no reason for you to deny it :D
I just wanna congratulate the non-touring choir cause' I think most of us did put in much effort in our work (the dance moves and everything) and this shows that anything is possible when we put our heart into it and if we trust God. :D

Colossians 3:23 (New International Version)

23Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for men,

Remember that everything you do is for the GLORY OF GOD :D Dun lose heart and always always strive for the better :D I'm sure the touring choir will do great for the competition coming up real soon :D We'll be counting on you guys ...

As for the Sec 4s who are leaving us soon

wait... you've already left us, we'll definitely miss you lots and lots and yepps! Dun worry and be happy cause the Lord will always be w/ yea :D

HEY CHOIR!!!! =D=D=D

Gosh...I havn't posted here for ages! Detriments of being an O level student...I guess I just wanted to say, GOOD JOB CHOIR!!! =D I'm really proud of each and every one of you. Cantabile holds great memories for me, and I'm sure it will hold great memories for you too. Well, as to how good the concert was...I just hope that you did your best, cause we're not ACS. The best is not YET to be...=} Yes, maybe the concert was not our 100%, but this concert does not determine what happens in Russia. CAUSE I KNOW YOU'LL ALL SHINE THERE!! I hope you enjoyed yourself on Saturday night, cause I did, and just to let you know (again...) I'm really proud of all of you!!

LOVE YOU!

hey choir :)

this is for the competition choir, haha

you have to memorize ALL the competition pieces, and the rest of the cantabile pieces have to be learnt well, but not memorized. As in you don't need to but if you want to, you can. :D

We worked on the sister act songs then the O Virgo Benedicta.

for joyful joyful:
-we have to be sure and take not of when we come in at times eg, bar 26 and bar 44. We also have to know the syncopation and the rhythm of the song.

for Hail Holy Queen:
-have to take note of the * hymn style* and sing it in the hymn style.
-for bar 17;
[this is for sops, sorry i only got the sop part :$]
"salve, salve..." that part, you have to swell. So it's like at "Sal" you crescendo and at "ve" you decrescendo.
-for bar 19, the "ve" has to have a rounded cut-off.

for O Virgo Benedicta:
-[for sop 2] bar 24: need a smooth transition to bar 25.
-bar 62 "lis" has to be held for the full count.

thats all i got :P

*oh, and i dunno if you'll got this, but we have to be in school on Sat by 1pm :D
*on friday, you have to be in school by 8:30. meet at bamboo courtyard in P.E. attire. it ends at 5pm. i think. :) heehee

hope this helped and hope you had fun on your ROCS2 / OBS :)

byebye

lisa
**sorry, i forgot to add this in :$ heehee. We put in the words for O Virgo as well.

hyye choir! :D
this post is torture dedicated for the non-touring members. :D

to all ye people who hath gone for ROCs,
i hope you had fun!
i would have loved to go to Malaysia or OBS.. :(

looks like the concert is coming nearer and nearer..
scared yet? nahh, of course not!
please work hard!
memorize the scores and learn up the dance!

everyone: "did you say.. dance?"

yes i did! the awesome choreography team (of Moi and Siying) came up with a cool dance!
it's for Joyful Joyful. they took HOURS to make it! please thank them!
i love it a lot! :D

everyone: "but we just came back from ROCs! how will we learn?"

well non-touring members, please be in school on the 28th at 7.30 AM!
we hope to perfect everything by 1PM, but be prepared to stay back as late as 5PM..


we only have one practice left. let us make the most of it.

as for Saturday itself, please be at school by 1PM. thanks!

okay as for the songs we need to learn up properly! they are:
- ubi caritas
- hodie christus natus
- let it shine
- joyful joyful
- hail holy queen

*stares* i think there should be more, but these are the ones that need the most perfecting!
ESPECIALLY the Sister Act songs because WE ARE CLAPPING/DANCING TO THEM!!

anyway, to those who have learnt their part of the dance, please teach the ROCs returners if they ask you for help!
we have to work harder and harder, but we will grow and have fun together as a family!

also, please try and sell all concert tickets and cards ASAP!
we must help the choir as the choir has helped us. :)

(oh and for anyone who cares, SJ is coming to Singapore this June! yay!)

God bless and best of luck!

Hey Choir!
I really should be doing last-minute homework now, but I figured I might as well post something happy on the blog!
So, this is a randomish video of this doooood who sings on Youtube! And he's like :O
I guess I thought that he had some things we could learn from him, like when you perform, you perform 100%; you can't get embarrassed and pull out and not give your all, cos then you'll look even weirder/lamer. So ya! He does guy and girl parts and imagine if he didn't put in all his effort, he'd come out looking REAAAAAAAAALLY. QUEER.
So yeaaahhhh. When you perform, make sure you give AT LEAST, your 100%!
ENJOY!

why hello there.

well CTs are almost over.

my last paper is tomorrow. math. so i should be studying but oh psshhhh.

so as mentioned earlier, FULL SPEED AHEAD :D
it's all polishing etc (with the exception of let it shine)

and we're gonna do GREAT xP

remember to revise your scores for wednesday!

and once again (just for good measure), FULL SPEED AHEAD:DDD
