fri we had our CCA open hse...of cos we had 2 perform...we're d choir mah...
niwae...we sounded gd only in the foyer...d outdoor stage n concourse performance sux
we sang "the lions slp tonight" n e college athem in e foyer
and "longest time" n "gd old acapella" in d concourse...
oh...the songs were nice alright...jus tt e mics cldnt pick up our voices properly...not that i'm blaming e AV crew or anything...a pity...
haiz...think e college athem sounded gd in 4 parts...always did...hahax...but jus dono whn will they let us record it as d official college athem tt will be played on mon mornin...cos that original one sux big time !
btw...b4 our performance in concourse...(we were hangin ard waitin 4 our turn which was delayed)...i helped MC record d performances...cos poor Norman had his hand bandaged again...! from 4 hrs of continuous recordin n holdin d cam in d same position...poor thing lar...it was very fun i must admit...if only i cld bcum part-time MCer...thn can help take pics n record video whn there's an event...i wldnt mind...not at all...=D
on the overall...i guess d best part of the whole thing was still d start of the whole thing...at 2pm...cos we had such a crowd n everyone enjoyed our performance...or so i think they did...yesh! choir did ourselves proud then !! *thumbs up*
on to the nxt thing...our 1st practice of d new song wif nus CO...we went to NUS's CFA (centre for the arts)...n practised with some people fr wild empire (ms ong's external grp) they were good lor...all d experts...n to think that we jus learned this song...like d day b4...we were able 2 grasp hold of it quite fast...maybe not d mezzos altos n tenors though...cos their parts r lots more diff...hey but ours was high lor...haha!
thn ard 5pm...(we started at 2)...we went 2 combine wif d CO...small auditorium they've gt there...but nvm...we cld still squeeze in...tot d conductor was rather cheena though very friendly n helpful...we joined in singin jus aft listenin 2 them for abt 2 times...thn aft a while...(it was quite ez 2 get d tune)...ms ong asked me 2 help d altos...a Challenge!...i haven learnt their parts...fun though...cos everytime gotta prick my ears n try 2 catch the notes fr d orchestra...i blasted lor...partly due to d few pro sopranos coverin everyone's voices...so to let mezzos catch their notes...gotta blast behind them...haha...
everything ended rather early...not even 6 yet...n d conductor praised us 4 a well done first time! they even provided us wif refreshments aft practice lor...so cool! well...i'm looking forward 2 nxt wk...n d nxt too...! anyone who wanna go for the concert letme noe k?
