March hols schedule

Good evening band members,

The  training schedule for March has been passed down already if you have not received it, please get it from me (Bryan) or your Majors.

We are left with 36 days (5 weeks) to our SYF.We didn’t do very well during the soundcheck yesterday. I can understand that almost everyone of us, when we are up on stage, we feel rather uneasy and thus, not able to play our best. There is only ONE solution to this – PRACTICE.
Once you practice your parts well enough, no matter where you are playing, who you are playing in front of, you will not feel the nervousness on stage. PRACTICE IS THE KEY to performing well. Besides this, Team effort is essential for a good band. I’m sure I have emphasized several times on that. Disciplinary wise, you will expect tighter enforcements on rules etc. Please cooperate with the leaders, Mr Samuel and teachers. They have really put in a lot of their time and effort into bringing up the band. See this process as a learning opportunity rather than a place to earn cca points. You are learning a new skill, free of charge.

The teachers have given their best to the band (all the planning, staying back, negotiations etc.) NOW it is UP TO YOU. ALL OF YOU to determine whether their efforts have been worthwhile.

Please COOPERATE with us, LEARN and IMPROVE. Practice, practice, practice.
