Practice on 31/10/12

HALLO PEOPLES OF CHOIR!

Good news: this is the last practice before the 2-week break
Bad news: THIS IS THE LAST PRACTICE BEFORE THE 2-WEEK BREAK! AAAHH!

Mmkay, down to business.

Don’t know what went down during the first half 'cause I wasn't there (read: A SEC1 OR SEC2 BETTER COME AND GET THE USERNAME AND PASSWORD FOR THIS BLOGGER ACCOUNT SOON AND WRITE ABOUT IT) 

But for the second half, for which I was there, we ran through ave maris Stella, and put in the words for it. We were supposed to have learnt that. Miss J Tham had to go through the whole piece, including notes.

Before that, we went through oremus, where we learnt how to sound chim (cheem?) while practicing the tricky notes. I have no idea how to explain it over blog post (perhaps a junior who can do so should get the password and username from me and do it) but it's pretty cool

For Regina celi, Miss Tham told us where the doh changes, because it's an evil piece that changes key very often. People, who were absent, go get it from you SLs or whoever.

After that, Ms Ng came along and gave us a whole list of announcements
  1. Sec 1s and 2s who are not going overseas during the 2-week break, miss Tham (not sure which one) would like to meet up with you guys if possible, so keep your options open?
  2. We may call for more practices after the 2 week break
  3. Please tell lyn whether you've received the angel cards to sell (for all sec 3s, lyn already knows)
  4. There will be pre-order forms for cantabile tickets, like last year. Sec 1s and 2s have to hand these in by 19th November, sec 3s by 21st
  5. Prague people will have to stay back after practice on the 16th for admin stuff to be sorted out.
  6. Prague comm will have to stay back even after that to discuss more stuff
  7. For the sec 3s who are just returning from Rocs, as much as possible please try and attend the practice on the 16th November

39 HOURS TO CONCERT 

tell me if i've missed anything out, kay? kay.
