SPU 2
SPU practice was good today. Started real late, but ended on time.Overture for Percussion Ensemble rocks! Challenging with all the syncopated notes, but real fun to play. Have to coordinate with Melody. Pressure. I'll just have to get the recording somehow and listen to the coordination. Or I'll just recall the melody that Melody's playing (haha!) and sort it all out. Very tricky - she off-beat, I on-beat. She on-beat, I off-beat. Then sometimes we're together. It's very, very fun to play although I'll probably mess up on that day. *Pray* Please don't let me mess it up! I've botched enough concerts already.
Haven't tried the actual speed on chimes today because the chimes is somewhere else... Left don't know how many bars on the floor, how to play?! So I used keyboard instead. But I love the syncopated. Ok, I'll continue loving it until I start doing the actual speed on the chimes itself then I'll have tired arms and a strained neck. Try playing the bars above you while looking at the score full of quavers and syncopated notes beside you. Maybe I'll hate it then. Plus when nearing the concert Damien sure will be fired up and start scolding everyone, even more stressed then!! Poor pearlin was sight-reading today. Thought she did a decent job on it, though. And Yizhen ah, say cannot, cannot! for Ceremonium on snare but in the end also play nicely! Haha... Me ok lah, have to practice the slow part for ceremonium, got trouble reading 2 notes at 1 time. Always have. A bit exasperating lahz...
And I'm happy that I can hear a bit of what others are playing le, which means I am improving! Yay! I want to return to last time like that.
Back to the books it is!
