hey all.
just wanna comment on the national anthem played this morning.
intonation was really bad from what we hear from downstairs.. especially when u all had to hold the long notes.. can hear the vibrating sound.. please be aware of that ya.. thought that you all would improve on yr intonation cos the last time when u all played the first national anthem without the seniors, it didnt sound tt nice too. ( not that with the seniors , it sounded nice hor!) sorry to have said that but ya, i really hope u all can improve and improve =))
end ur notes on time. OK?
TRIPLETS!! what u all played was a super NO NO. i could hear u all from downstairs but
where's the articulation??.. i bet the concert mistress stress on it a few times le yah? so tongue!!! and
please be on time for that two triplets too. conductor was about to go to the next bar but u all havent finish the triplets. so
CANNOT LIKE THAT HOR.. dont hold too long for the first note of the triplet. u all tend to lengthen that note.. hmm. habit?? then
must change.
lastly. play it like u are proud of singapore ( even if you are not). play majestically can onot?? sounded very sloppy..
hope u all improve on these points ok.. AND. i really hope the section can become bonded ok.. dont be like the seniors last time. ( my batch-the one whom the seniors like to quarrel with and then quit in the end) okok? i hope got ppl read the comments la..
love y'all
