Tjcsb tune-in
Just back not quite long ago from tjcsb tune in. Met weitheng at tampines control at arnd 8 30. I was late lo, was supposed to meet at 8. Luckily, the waiting time for the bus and train not long, so we weren't late. Reach tj at 9 am. Mingled with new faces and ppl frm e same section for awhile, then started having games. Games... Ok la not too bad, quite funny though. While playing wacko, junjie got forfeited then kena pillar. Sad case.. Ya, then play a few games here and there, then went for lunch. Went Kfc to eat with the section. Zz. Weitheng sad, so loner, lucky tpts still got jj. Lol. Yup, and FINALLY, band prac. The standard of the band and playing is like on a completely different level frm secondary school. Too hiong alr. The student conductor conducted us for American graffiti(not the one we play), Howl's moving castle, Pirates of the Caribbean, Celtic child and X'massimo. All the songs veh nice but very hard. Then after which the band's conductor, Mr Lin came. Played el camino real and Cavetown and X'massimo again. X'massimo was a new piece. Christmas song lai de. Very cool arrangement lol. Imagine Jingle bells in salsa... Sth like tt. El cam was played slowly, cos alot of us new to the song. Cavetown... ZomgzWtFbbQ! Lol. Hiongster song lol. Trumpet notes like all above high g. WHOLE SONG!! Plus funny funny rhythms. ZZzZ. Actually all the songs standard more or less like el cam, some even more difficult. Weitheng played until finger shake for the first time in his entire band life. Imagine how much he ran(on the clarinet =.=). I play until embouchure cmi liao. Lucky ytd went back to prac for awhile if not today sure cannot play de. Yup. The above songs most likely will be the repertoire for Tj concert on the 16th of Dec, saturday. Very shiok! Must come. lol. Very sad onli me and wt frm ahs playing. Very challenging lo the pieces. Must try urself to see.....
