HELLO CHOIR!Gosh, the last post was nearly half a year ago. We are soooo lacking in updates. Quite a lot has happened since January: Open House 2010, CCA Fair, performance outside Ngee Ann City and our guest-performance at AJC choir's VoyAJe in The Esplanade(:
So, the choir population has grown by wayyyyy a lot, as we see from here :D
Next picture, would be one taken by Ms Du when we were performing outside Ngee Ann City.
We'll never forgive the horrible acoustics and that temperamental fountain that couldn't decide whether to stop spraying or to continue. It was our first time performing in public with the 2010 batch. It was a good experience(: There was an exchange with AJC and VJC somewhere along the way at Siglap South CC. The aftermath of that produced an improved sound of the choir and here's us again. This is a recording of us singing Shima-e [Toru Takemitsu] at The Esplanade(:
Okay, next up, is the trip to Vienna/Olomouc! Dear people, please keep yourself healthy and hydrated with vitamins, proteins, fibre and water! Keep aiming high and believe in yourselves! Countdown: 10 days left till we fly off! Well, actually 11 since our flight's actually taking off on the 1st of June. Anyhow, strive on despite the slew of rehearsals (we know 4 times a week sounds crazy but it's for a better good!) and relentlessly growing pile of homework and revision. It's tough but we can do it! Year ones, mug hard for Common Tests and year twos, mug hard for BT2s!Lastly, for the dear A2s and tenors, here's an example of a wolf howling, kindly posted by Mr Foong on the tagboard. In case you're too lazy to open a new window/tab on your computer, here's the video. JUST CLICK PLAY, PLEASE & THANK YOU.
