i think compared to my other clsmates, the amt of hw done by me is really insignificant. again, i am arranging the song cai hong by jay chou for june concert.. hmm hav to finish it asap so that the whole band can learn it . given the short amount of time left, i wonder if we have enuf time to prepare for the concert. i reali hope it will be a success.. and hope to receive some flowers by sum1 at the end of it.. hope hope. cross my fingers! haha! i am tired , because these few days i have been slping late, and its really v late.. and this is going to stop because it simply is a matter of self control. mux learn to control when to slp so that i wunt slp in lecture during the next day and miss out all the impt stuffs.. i look forward to the concert , because we r gg to put in hard work like we did during syf and let our audiences enjoy what we have for them !

haha , ok it was scary time with the england lady. 1 to 1 .. but she was friendly and that really helped a lot. as soon as it started the pieces, my hands were like shaking. i dono how it happened. i just had feelings today. scales were ok , some mistakes here and there but overall it was fine. sight reading -.- dun talk about it le, i simply looked at a fresh piece of music and played it without getting any notes correct at all.. aural tests were ok except the last part when the examiner asked for the form of the music.. hai . i simply did not know.. and he told me instead it was a Bach 4-part fugue. i thought it was a 2 part invention. i only mentioned polyphony. i really need those marks, but simply they were far out of reach....!! then went to play arcade a while after the exam, just to relax. wanted to watch 10000BC , but no one was with me. so thought might as well go home :) hmm , nodame cantabile is really nice. me too, i really relished the wonderful memories you have given me. it was pure happiness.. i understand :) one day, if ever you need me, will always be there for u..

wahh haha listened to all the pieces on cd at least more than 20 times le, until really sian! reli hope to do well. but again .. a piece with no feelings is just a bunch of notes with sound. whr can i get all the strong feelings i used to have back? but it will never happen again. again, aiming for distinction but seems so faraway now with my uncompleted scales. oh ya, the youtube video, its nodame cantabile opening video, from a jap anime . enjoy everyone! =) , 9:33 PM
with Liszt's Mephisto Waltz !! wonderful piano composition by liszt, this piece should be one of the represetative works of liszt as it really brings out his style of composition..! the slow element provide a dynamic contrast to its fast counterpart..and at the same time "supports" it. and of course the catching melody and the rapid chromaticism.. its just pure brillance. last but not least, it takes no less than a piano virtuoso to play and bring out its wide range of tonal dynamics. the story behind it : ( adapted from wikipedia ) Lenau's episode at the village inn, which Liszt chose, ("The Dance / Village Inn / Wedding. Music and Dance") is of a rather erotic nature: Faust and Mephistopheles as hunter enter an inn where a wedding party is being held. Mephistopheles takes a fiddle from one of the minstrels, tunes it (represented in Liszt's music by the 5ths build up at the start of the piece) and plays a frantic dance. The music [Liszt] slows for an amorous new waltz theme which intoxicates the village peasants. Even the "echoing walls" [Lenau] of the inn "lament, pale with jealousy, because they cannot join in the dancing" [Lenau]. Faust takes advantage of this and dances with the bride, a black-eyed beauty (not "Gretchen" but "Hannchen"), and after some wooing, elopes into the woods with the young girl..., a nightingale sings a tune, and the music [Liszt] builds to an exciting climax when the pair is "swallowed up by the impetuous waves of amorous rapture" [Lenau]. Before the climax of this "rapture" Liszt lets the sensual lyrical theme of the Waltz reappear.] hmm, this piece really calms you. its takes merely listening once to let the whole piece sink in in you. listen carefully to the arpeggios.

haha, this week the kids @ keming no more exams, so got to plan smth fun for them .. lol my idea really very limited because i am not a very fun person in the first place. i need a "joker" to help me think of some really fun ideas...i tried to think of playing some games michael tay once played wif us before. maybe tomorrow we could try doing some quiz, i have roughly prepared the qns! haha, this wk has been really suay for wei qin. eh brother, hope you get well soon. have been absent from sch one week le, but i think catch up is leng leng for you. (if ever u see this...) or u trying to skip lsns only? cya in sch tmr!! but its just because i was really angry at that time.. angry at why you are treating me like this..bcoz smrwhr u r still in my heart. hai, maybe we will nv get to understand each other..

the theory that when you treat people nice, they will treat you back the same way , holds true.. and i always believe it does. except for some people, like mr anno. i think spamming on people's blog is not the correct thing to do in the first place..and the spammer the least he could do was to say what was wrong and who he is. but no, he spat rubbish on my tagboard WITHOUT saying why he would do that. no given reasons AT ALL. and the funny thing is. seems like his friends all supported his "courageous behaviour". and well, now we have one supporter of anno , i think. she has blatantly told me to grow up, meaning literally. and for every reason i think i should .. but at my own pace. looks like sum1 has long forgotton the feeling of being spammed in the tagboard without the slightest reason given ..and is now supporting spammers instead. lols. pls do, go on helping. anw , i was actually being held in pretence the whole while. i really cannot believe sum1 can actually have such a change of attitude. well , after all no matter what i do, i am STill being targeted in sum1'sblog. do you think we are even like friends now from your words? but anyway from your latest tags,we have nothing to with each other anymore. clear enough? btw tmr morning get back phone! i have lost everything. |
