Sectionals

To prepare for the National Band Competition

But every people in the section must be at least similar in their playing so as to ensure uniformity, togetherness and balance of sound.

Well, I gave individuals to Zhang Yi from 0830 to 09++, then later combine with Walter and Bryan till 1230.

At 9+, aloycious (sr dunno how to spell) came and I thought, oh my, what an en2 junior the flutes got! Yes, he was en2, but partly cos flutes oso hv sectionals, under Leng.

After sectionals, few of us went to McD on Leng's car, the "dude who is old but young at heart" has a "cool blue car", one which bottom will scrape the ground of KAP's car park entrance.

Too bad Leng did not use his money wisely, or he would be duly appreciated by all those who went with him to McD.



Zhang Yi has to do a lot on his sounds: starting, ending, tone, tuning, etc etc, all of which cannot be solved in just one practice. I wish to take him for more sectionals, if time allows.

Bryan is ok, but he needs more "confidence" and a better tone.

Walter is by far the best among 3 of them, and hope that he can continue working harder.

Yang Fan on the other hand, needs a lot of bucking up to do. He was quite good at Sec1, but he ponned almost the whole of Sec2, making his playing deprove a lot.

Sometimes you really need some talent to play well...

Haiz, there are so much to do, and i hope that we can make it for nx year's SYF.


*Cheers!
