Hey y'all!

Hope you guys have had a wonderful rest after today's practice. Well, at least i have. hahaha

Anyways, i really hoped you guys had fun yesterday (well yeah, you'd better have fun cos it's the final year for the sec4). Please remember to practice the techniques Mr Tham taught us yesterday and do work on the dynamics. In case any of you are curious of the italian terms used for the songs, here it is:

From Shinjiru:
Bar 10. pochissimo riten-very little ritardation
Bar 10. legato smooth playing style in which the notes seem bound together (in other words, sing smoothly)
Bar 11. a tempo Resume original tempo
Bar 12. poco < do crescendo little by little
Bar 26. molto legato very smooth
Bar 37. piu mosso animated(!)
Bar 38. stringendo squeezing together, pressing, accelerating the tempo, a rapid accelerando with a crescendo
Bar 45. liricamento (i can't seem to find the meaning for this one. Sorry)
Bar 47. marcato strongly accented (sound like we're marching)
Bar 52. parlando in the style of recitative, singing with a distinct articulation so that all the words are clearly audible
Bar 86. meno mosso not so/less animated
Bar 93. tranquilo peaceful, slow
Bar 93. rall. (short for rallentando) slow down; ritard

Just a note for Sopranos, almost all of us still can't get the C^# for Bar 15's back, it is the same note as Bar 54's un.

Keep listening to the tracks yaw. DO REMEMBER THAT OUR RECESS PERFORMANCE IS THIS COMING WEDNESDAY. Practice hard people!

Camp photos're up HERE
