HEY BAND, well done for yesterday. We're probably too tired or nervous already, hence our performance was not quite expected. Don't be too disheartened by the performance yesterday yeah because we had three straight days of practices. Nonetheless, we shouldn't be complacent and do keep in mind that SYF is coming in 23 days' time! If we're able to have attendance as good as yesterday, and if everyone is able to remember to apply what's being taught, we shouldn't worry about SYF!

Its time for us to improve on our dynamics and some of the technical problems, especially the woodwinds. Also, we should also try to adapt to the change in environment. Its echoic in the halls, so please learn to listen to the other players to come in together. Furthermore, we should also learn to overcome our stage-fright so that we will be able to play well despite our nervousness. Once all these are settled, a Silver is very likely to be attained!

The Band has also organised an Band Outing next Saturday! We will go out before the exchange. Those who are interested to go, please meet us at the Aljunied MRT Station at 10AM! For more detail, refer to http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=161770577209375

RSVP to the event page so that we could have a rough number of the people going (: Hopefully that this outing would create a stronger bond and understanding between us. The Band now lacks BONDING, so do our playing. A strong bond would allow us to play in unison!

See you guys next Wednesday, 230PM. Do not be late! Come ASAP after your dismissal from whatever activities (:
