2nd semester, 1st fusion workshop!
shane's getting so many pimples lately. so sad. =(
guess what..
THE FIRST FUSION WORKSHOP OF SEMESTER 2 WAS A SUCCESS!!
had only 3days to arrange it.
very glad to come up with this piece.
the piece is Over The Rainbow.
a very classic piece.
rearranged it to have jazzy parts.
im so happy la! i can play simple jazz style on piano!
maybe not very good, (trying to be humble LOL)
but.. de least people can tell its jazz,
and one of de seniors thought i was a jazz student. =D
a new achievement for me.
i learnt new chord progressions again.
very beautiful ones.
another new achievement!
im so happy laaaaa. =D
but im stressed until whole face all pimples already. =(
anyway, de arrangement was really great!
isaac played de drums, i taught him to play de simple jazz beats.
yup! it was professional but simple.
iris and kelvin on de violins filling in de improvisation.
actually in my opinion, de violins were unneeded,
but those were de best instruments they can play,
other than a flute, marimba, or another piano.
i rather have 2 violins u see.
the style's and arrangement was really great i thought!
for de 2nd time im so proud of my arrangement.
the first arrangement i was proud of was when i helped Devi's group to perform.
Theme from Forbidden City - My Only Chance.back then we had a really good drummer with us,
Joseph, who offered to help.
this time round, we didnt ask him for help, cant ask him everytime yar?
yuppp! the arrangement was great,
if we had better drummer, or given more time,
i'd surely wrote better parts for the violins.
well..
i wanna upload for u guys to see!
but.. youtube only allows up to 100MB,
my file is 131MB, anyone knows where i can upload over 100MB on de net?
please tell mee!
oh gosh,
i just realised i forgot ALL about Devi.
back then Devi sang the Forbidden City Theme too.
this time round she sang Over The Rainbow.
it was LOVELY!
DAMN IT. I LOVE HER VOICE LAAAAAA.
classically trained vocalists always have beautiful voices!
and it was a challenge for her too,
she was classically trained, yet sang pop and jazz this time according to my arrangement.
she did really well! im so proud of you my sister! =D
everytime devi sings, we all enjoy what we play. ^^
okay shucks, im running late for lesson!
gotta catch pris, xm and the electone mates now!
hahaha. tk care guys!
REMEMBER TO HELP ME FIND OUT WHERE TO UPLOAD DE VIDEO! =D
