Latest updates!

Hi all!
These are the latest updates for choir :D

Please check out your tpjc.net for the schedule!

There are a few changes made!
If there is a need, pls print it out or write it down somewhere to remind yourself! (:

SLS, pls take note of the schedule.
For Monday's choir practice, Ms Ong will be going through the SYF piece section by section,
starting with the sopranos!
All other sections, please work on the carols during sectionals.
For the other choir practices, if Ms Ong is working on a particular section for the SYF piece,
all other sections pls work on the carols unless Ms Ong has thought your section the SYF piece,
then only do you work on the SYF piece during sectionals yeah (:
Also, SLs, since we are having choir practices in the afternoon practically everyday, it may not be necessary for your section to have sectionals inbetween classes. Pls do let me/gill know if you want to cancel your sectionals because it may not be necessary. (:

On a lighter note, there will be less practices for the month of December because alot of sops
and tenors are not around, so we are left with altos and basses, hence its impossible to have combined practices. Section leaders who feel that their section needs more practice
can come back for sectionals as Ms Ong will be available on the first week of december! (:

Pls also check your tpjc.net and update the latest availability schedule so that we know when you are not around (: Thanks loads :D
AND BRING $5 FOR CHOIR FUND if you havent paid :D
TYVM :DDD


THATS ALL :D
Cya all soon!

Love, Sherene.

So what's happening during NOV & DEC?

Ok, so here's the plan for the last few practices we're gonna have for this year! D:

SYF training comprises of sectionals, watching concerts, carolling...

For carolling, we're gonna learn 10 songs and.... we can hold scores when singing!

We know that the last few practices are gonna be like HELL or even worse, BUT! stay strong and hang in there because we're all in this together yeah?

Please don't pon any of the practices without super valid reason, cuz we're gonna be learning the SYF song which is EXTREMELY IMPT TTM!

Any queries pls ask ur SLs first before heading straight to MsOng yourself k?

Alrighty, that's all.

Feel free to add anymore info if there'e anything missing ya?

CYA SOON!
Victoria


Oh oh hi guys it's Gillian here! Anyways, all sectionals and choir practices will be held in the CHOIR ROOM. Except for 18nov, where Sops and Altos share the same sectional time slot. In this case, we'll update you on which rooms to use (most likely one of the SR and the Choir Room though) But the rest of the other timings, no other sectionals clash so you don't have to worry.

Sunday Pomo practice is highly encouraged because you get to sing the songs with adult singers! But it is not compulsory. But highly encouraged. Yes. Hahaha.

The Movie Marathon will be held on 10dec, Friday. Location is to be confirmed, because we were thinking of having it in a classroom in the school. Can you imagine, one classroom, we push all the tables to the back/side and then we lay out our floor mats, sleeping bags and we bring our own pillows and stuff and watch the movie from there?! So cool right! :D Hehe. Yes. But the school has to approve and open the room for us, so we'll update you guys.

The above schedule is just for you to see on the blog. The one that can be printed out and hung on your door or something, is sent to you via tpjc.net, kudos to Victoria! :D So yes. Head over to tpjc.net and download it okay? And remember to write the dates down somewhere!! But all practices are still tentative, but close to confirmed. So just be alert for any other changes on the way!

As Victoria said, we're all in this together :) A choir is special because it's made up of all our voices. Every practice is important because you get to learn new techniques, brush up on your old, improve on your own singing, learn new songs, correct old mistakes... And each and everyone of you is important :) I know so many practices will make anyone feel sian about coming for practice - don't worry, me and Eliz and pretty much the rest of the Exco is feeling sian about having so many practices too. But let's persevere together okay? Let's look towards that Gold, or Gold w Honors and believe that we can achieve it! Remember the musical we had, and Poland? We achieved success and we managed to get what we wanted because we were determined and passionate about what we were doing. So let's carry this passion forward, and hwaiting!

Love, Gillian! (and the rest of the Exco)

October timetable.

Hey guys!

Here's a schedule of events up till the concert, "Wild at Heart" on 14th November. Please take note of the dates of training and if possible, write them somewhere! In your phone or scheduler or something so you're not lost.

Note, voice training will most likely be in Choir Room and Sectionals will be held in one of the SRs. The reason why we're practicing with Wild Empire so much is because we'll be performing our First Half songs with them to strengthen our sound. So yes. Please be responsible and take the dates of everything down!! I know it's a lot at the moment. But the concert is only a month away, so everything needs to be rushed out.

Update!

Hey guys!

Just in case you haven't heard about the news, the concert on the 5th September is cancelled. It will most likely be postponed to November though, so keep your eyes open!

Please return ALL your tickets to Victoria, and if you had paid for it, please take your $16 from Jonah Wang. We need it asap, so please return it if you haven't!

We will still be performing our musical spoof at the end of the year, so try to think of any possible ideas to add/contribute to our existing storyline okay?

Meanwhile, Ms Ong will most likely be conducting vocal training in preparation for SYF AFTER our whole PW presentation and whatever is over. So please be prepared to sing again! Don't anyhow go lose your voice or eat a lot of chili/curry/fried stuff okay! Must take care of your voices so we'll be in tip-top shape for SYF next year ;)

Study hard during this one week break, let's do well for Promos as a whole Choir! We're all in this together!

See you all when school reopens! :)

Gillian

Adding on to Gillian's post, Deborah says that if you are holding on to Fiona's gown when in Poland, you can keep it (: Hahas yeah i know its kinda random but thats all :D
