Dear Bloggie...
As the curtain rise, the Emcees introduce the band, my time to shine draws nearer...
Hi ya'll! =]
Honestly sometimes I don't know where life takes me...
Just afew weeks back, I was a full time camp facilitator...
And now, I'm embarking on a new journey...
But my dad wants me to go down another road, a road that's more stable...
I mean I want that for me as well, but again I find myself touching my heart...
I've been raping my heart quite often recently...
Asking about love and all that...
Anyhoo, Balestier Hill Secondary Band is quite similar to Ngee Ann Band...
Their size and skills are quite similar...
I haven't heard them play as a combined band yet, but the sec 1s sound very promising...
Tomorrow I'll be going down again to hear the whole band play...
I'm really really glad to be given this opportunity to work with youths...
Especially doing the thing I love most, BAND! =]
But lets just, take a step back shall we...
And truly understand the meaning behind all this...
As you look through a new piece of music, what do you see?
Yea sure, you see, tempo markings, dynamic chances, key signatures...
But do you literally see the music flying off from the pages...
The notes, singing their melody to you...
Do you, hear, what the composer is saying when he writes, Allegro...
Yea you can be technical and say that Allegro is 120 beats per crotchet...
But do you feel it?
Does it make you aware, make you wanna dance?
I do...
It just excites me to know I will be making music...
And eventually touch the hearts of the audience through the band I'll be conducting...
This is the beginning of my journey, and I hope I will go far...
I really need to work hard now...
FIGHTING!!!!
