HELLO!

SYF rehearsal was great!

Even though we will not be playing as loudly, Mr Tay had helped us refined our sound projection and it sounded much clearer and not so za (as according to my recordings).

It is a great relief that we don't have to play until our (my) strings break or mas drop. PHEW. [My strings always break!]

But this gives us a problem with our da xiao sheng (loudness) We must really work very very hard on our movement and da xiao sheng (loudness). Since we are playing softer, the soft parts will be almost soundless! The places where we are suppose to be soft, please only touch the strings/notes and make minimal sound, i.e. not being able to hear yourselves playing, which is CORRECT! The places where we are suppose to be loud is good enough, KEEP IT UP!:D

This are the two main things that we have to take note in order to achieve excellence. JIAYOU! WORK HARD! COOPERATE!

And I can't believe that Murong and Yuru both broke their strings. Next time Murong should give eye contact to signal someone else, like Guyao to play if that really happen again, though it is not very possible as we are playing soft right? [However, do take note of this for future performances:D]

SH guzheng was soooo zai. I heard that Mr Tay asked you all to go home early right! - Meaning that he is satisfied. WOW. Juniors must look up on seniors kays! And learn from them!

JIAYOU FOR SYF EVERYONE!:D:D:D

Guzheng rocks and we love guzheng! <3

Post-concert Photos

Ok, I got these photos off FB. (Credits to Murong's friend just in case I land myself in some copyright issues. :D)


Take 1: Jerald is wondering whether he should add bunny ears for Jie Yi (see Mingquan's example).


Take 2: After the first shot was taken (which he probably have yet to realise i think..), Jerald decides to consult his fellow musketeer Arthur Antonio for advice. Alas! Arthur Antonio is too busy (self-absorbed) having his own soliloquy with his rose to share Jerald's woes.

Meanwhile, Rebecca attempts to add a pair of (V^^V) bunny ears for herself (without realising that Mingquan has already done so during the first take), leaving Mingquan looking very bewildered.


Take 3: In the end, Jerald didn't have enough time to execute his plan because the 3rd photo was suddenly taken. And that ends this mini-photo-caption-cum-story abruptly. Oh yea, and everyone lived happily ever after.

This happiness was short-lived for some though -- Wye Inn and Melissa realised that they have not (and have to) sweep the stage.

Jokes aside, good job for the concert everyone!! :) Well done!! Ex-sell-lent!! And we managed to polish off all the sandwiches! :)))) Yay

With the sacificial of much toil, buckets of sweat (it's really hot outside the PAC) and one bang-zee, we made it!! Thank You (literally, a big thank you) to all those who participated and/or helped in the concert!! :)

Thoughts and feelings about 1st Heart Strings concert

Hi guzheng-ers! :)

Its one day after our Heart Strings concert. I supposed you have gotten a good rest by now. I wanted to sms everyone but only have half your numbers haha, so shall type here as well.

I hope you have enjoyed practicing and playing for the concert! :):) I had a really great time myself :D Thank you to ppl like Miss Teo, Esther and Darryl for organising the concert, and for everyone else whom contributed one way or another, even just by participating. Take care and see you at next year's concert!! :)


-Ming Quan

PS: Someone post the photo of everyone after the concert on this blog yeah? Thanks! (:

汉江韵 scores

The Han Jiang Yun score has so many pages that i have decided to start typing first (to entertain myself) while waiting for all the 12 pages to be scanned -.-

Here's a couple of my all-time-fav jokes!!! :))))

*gua zou*

p.s. some of you who have been fen-ed by me before should know most of the answers because i recycle my jokes during fenzus. lol.

Woohoo~~ I finished scanning the scores!! >:D (this is a "smug" smiley face)

Ok you can try figuring out the answers to the above questions while waiting for the 12 pages to get printed. :) Please print your own scores because we do not have enough copies of Han Jiang Yun to distribute. Tyvm!!

OK I'm scooting off now. *scoots off*

...

*scoots back*

I forgot to mention this: Concert Rehearsal will be on 20th Feb (sat), 9-1pm.

*scoots off again*

p.s. Who is goodboy?
p.p.s. debbie, the blog is no longer dead.. for now only. lol.
p.p.p.s. I realised that this post will push down the previous posts. Check out the January 2010 archives for the 赶庙会 and 小天鹅舞曲 scores.
