hellooooo (:

here's the pieces we're playing for the minister coming on wed: (i dont know the order)
1. wiren serenade, 4th mvt
2. jazzin' about suite o.O
3. simple symphony, 3rd and 4th mvts
4. mozart (the prefects' installation one)
5. bartok last 3 mvts (yes, the one that everyone is sick of)
6. st paul's suite, jig

cant remember what else. go check the ensemble notice board anyway.

this is for everyone who was from the main ensemble last year.

BE DOWN AT THE BAMBOO COURTYARD BY 11.00 a.m.
BE SEATED DOWN WITH YOUR STANDS AND SCORES BY 11.15 a.m.

if you have recess at 11.00 a.m., you are supposedly released at 10.40 a.m. for recess.

AND YOU ARE SUPPOSED TO BRING YOUR OWN STAND TO THE BAMBOO COURTYARD. mrs chan said the chairs will be there though. just come help set up.

and teo will be going after ALL THOSE WHO DO NOT DO DUTY. you have been warned (: because it isnt fair to the same people who have to do duty EVERY WEEK when its not actually their job to and people who are on duty just leave early or come late.

pleasepleaseplease be more considerate.

bye :D see you on wed, BE PUNCTUAL.

prefects' installation.

please be in the hall by 6.50 a.m. with your instruments. come slightly earlier if you can to help set up the chairs and the stands. put all your scores (schubert, mozart, higher ground, how great thou art, bless this school, school song) in a BLACK file.

mrs chan will be conducting us, not mr chan.

oh, in case you guys didnt hear the order of the pieces we're playing:

1. prelude: schubert marche militaire (prefects walking up to stage)
2. how great thou art (after mrs yap speaks)
3. higher ground (after handbells perform)
4. school song (after prefects dedication pledge)
5. bless this school (after benediction)
6. postlude: mozart (right after bless this school)

and look up during marche militaire, although i dont think mrs chan knows about the whole "V" thing. oh well.

on wed, we need to tell people about this blog :X we'll be reading through dvorak serenade so look forward to it :D and make suggestions to mr chan about the pieces for the july concert.

dont be late on monday! (: come early!
