Hi all. Please be informed that the next band pract. will be on the 24th November (Monday), usual time from starting from 8am-12pm. Room will be opened till 3pm for sectionals. I’ve gotta make things clear. Rehearsal time starts at 8am, and it doesn’t mean you come at 8am. You arrive to school earlier. On Monday, chairs and percussion to be set up in the hall by 7.45am, every member, please have some courtesy to help instead of taking your own sweet time to assemble your clarinet/flute/saxophone or whatever instrument. just to name a few cus they are usually the ones. Make sure you’ve got LOTAH and Overture no. 1 (set piece). Once Mr. Ong enters, he’ll be starting warm up and then the pieces.
Requirements for the rehearsal:
*Complete Legend of the Ancient Hero & Half of Overture No. 1 *Pencil *Scribbled notes all over the scores of both pieces
In any case you fail to fulfill this requirement, Mr. Ong will walk off the band. Please show that you’re ready.
Leaders, please help out, seriously, the leaders are not doing anything and its always me and patricia doing the job. You guys gotta help out.
Section Leaders: Please inform your section of this upcoming monday rehearsal event line-up. If they fail to meet the requirement, section leaders will be in deep deep deep deep trouble.
Also, we may have footdrills, please wear your PE attire. And Diaphragm exercises may be conducted. Running around the school 3 times, the one which Trombone section did for sectionals.
Conductor(s), Councils & Members will be looking forward for an enjoyable rehearsal. Please make it come true. I really need help and cooperation.
Thanks and have a nice day(:
