Today was the FATEFUL day of our COMBINED SYF CONCERT. How was it?
Personally, I thought it was better than the one at RI. But not much better.
I think we dont have much problems now.
The major problem now is coping with our stage fright.
One way that I've invented, is to close your eyes and imagine the audience behind Mr Goh when you play, just like today. Think of Mr Goh's conducting, and all the audience intently hanging on to your every note. Then play. Try to not think that you're just at home, practicing or whatever. Try to put yourself in the SYF scenario.
I dont know if this works. You can dont listen to me if you think it isnt good. :D
Ok I've nothing much to say at this point in time lor...
Too late to make drastic improvements, but I believe that if everyone tries to better themselves, everyone would naturally improve as a section la.
Wanshan has improved quite a bit, as noticed by me. I hope you all improve like her too!
Play over your weak parts over and over again. Like FNJ's second house...
Cant play it, then just focus on it. Play the whole thing in one go. Cant? Split it up into half. Perfect the first half, then the next half, then together. Still cant? Split it up even more. Try and try and try till you can. Devote half an hour to practicing it. There's no use practice the rest of the song; no use practicing your good spots. It's the weak ones that you have to work on.
Ok... comment on my weak points too ok? What I need now are comments on how to improve. :D

P.S. Kaywerlyn you dog, give my the CO fund ASAP or suffer my wrath.
