2009-04-15T15:04:00.000-07:00

I know it isn't over yet. I just want to thank everyone for their efforts they have put in for the past few months( even though it's inconsistent, I still do).

For those who didn't get through the auditions: It doesn't make you lesser than a member in this family. I mean it.

That's all. PH.

choir videos

2009-04-10T23:47:00.001-07:00

Most of these videos are past SYF performances.

St. Nicholas Girls choir

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fsPpiWs5RYs

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p4jxNZT4lpw&feature=channel

The second video is more spectacular....
Sopranos should learn from them...

Anderson secondary school

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HJv-a-S96lQ

For this school, their voices are voices solid.... which is what the altos and the baritones really
need for their voices....

Neal E. Boyd

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_-7zYPT-jpA

This is the winner of America's Got Talent. Watch this very touching story and how he uses his emotions and feelings and evokes it into his song which electrifies the audience...

Choir, when u guys song any song, not just SYF songs , this is how u should perform.

Kamiak choir

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2V0eIpJcZ9M

This is an american choir, about our ages also. well i wanted to show u this video because:

1. It's a very beautiful and touching performance and i wanted to share it with u guys.
2. The people standing in front the choir with the solo singers are graduating students and they are singing with the choir for the last time.

My point is that on the SYF day, the sec 4s will be singing for the last time with zhenghua choir already. So make us proud to have been in the choir for almost 4yrs already.

That's all, take your time to view the videos PLEASE.

Thank You,
Luigi

2009-04-04T03:17:00.000-07:00

OMG... whoever becomes the student conductor would be so fortunate... so cool being a conductor.... well... good luck to all you choir peeps... gotta go rush math homework... break a leg...

Luigi

2008-07-11T01:54:00.000-07:00

Hello! (:

Kimberly's here.

9 July!

2008-07-09T11:22:00.000-07:00

Anyway, i thought someone had alrdy post about this- BUT since no one has yet i am going to post it. No hard feelings m'kay?

Our New Commitee Members.

ChairPerson - Vra
Vice Chairperson - Frederick
Student Conductor - *Blank* at the moment, would update as soon as it is chosen.

-Sectional Leaders-

Soprano - JieYi
Alto - Kimberly
Baritone - Frederick

-Administrative Workers-

Secretary - Kimberly
Treasurer - Rebecca
Logistic - Poh Heng and Elena.

I bet you all know what SL leaders do- so i won't go into detail.
Now for the Administrative Workers!

Secretary's job is basically doing all the things that have got to do with paper and pen. Like for example- marking of attendance, handing out of forms and stuffs lyk that.

Treasurer as the name suggests, is ALL about money! Well the job is to collect money for choir funds or some activities.

Logistic -is what i call the worst job you can EVER get and also the most important one among the admin section. In logistic, you HAVE to do EVERYTHING that would keep choir going. Basically, Logistic ppl do all the basic things like- venue, keyboard, scores, uniform blah blah blah.

-Personal Views-

I was kinda happy when i wasn't chosen in the SL section as well as the Secretary and Treasurer- and i was SO sure of it that i wouldn't be chosen in the logistic section, and guess what happened? I was chosen to be IN logistics with a assistant. I was lyk, "Oh Jesus! Oh God! Oh my LIFE!" Well, I already had an idea on how logistic ppl have to work, so yea.

But truthfully, have you ever see someone who hate their job ON their first day of their job? If you haven, your lookin at that someone's post now. I mean, on the first day of my job- i am already being bombarded with works already! But hey, i have NEVER curse before; unless when necessary, lyk today. xP

I always laugh -yes i mean it, laugh- behind the logistic ppl's back becuz they always had to do ALOT of things but i guess i would have a taste of it myself now. And i bet someone out there would laugh at me behind my back- i know who you are, don't even dare to hide now!

Well, I think i would enjoy it nonetheless if the work isn't TOO much. So yea, gambete!

-And oh- let me give you two piece of news before it's annouce to the whole choir, from now onwards, we would have to check all the things on the choir notice board. If you don't know where it is, it's located directly under the music room at the first floor.

The second news is, we would have a choir bonding session either on monday OR wednesday next week. I would lyk to hope it's on the Monday becuz i would be buzy on Wednesday. Which means i don't get to bond :( - Anyway i am incharge of the plannin' too, so, hehe i see what i can do! :) BUt if no choice- die die must have to be on wednesday, then i think i pon my lesson! (Sssh, don't tell the teacher!)

Today in choir- Mr chen had also introduced a new kind of sitting style! Now we get to sit in a BIG circle where Mr chen would be in the middle. There would be also a SMALL circle inside the BIG circle, where the late people would have to be in it. There would be 30 chairs to make up the BIG circle and 10 to make up the SMALL one. He also introduced us to a new warm-up. It's by singing Amazing Grace- well we only sing the tune not the real words.

And oh, Mr chen did a REAL funny thing today, that made my stomach hurt so much after it. Becuz alloysius(sec 1 guy from base) had some trouble singing the right note out, So Mr chen took a paper and place the end at his ear- it's touching, and his lips on the other end, and he sing out the note asking alloysius to sing the note with him. And guess what? Alloysius did SOOO much better after it! A round of applause please~ WOO

He reasoned that, sound travels better by solid then gas. So by using the piece of paper, alloysius can listen to the sound better and well sing it! :)

Okay, that's all for now! Cya!

You know you love me,

1st & 2nd of July!

I thought i would be the first one to write about the musical but i guess i am wrong :(. The whole musical thing is a collaboration of Choir, Dance and Drama Club of MayFlower Secondary. Where Mr. Chen is the director! Well i suppose everyone knows what a musical look/sound liked. If not, just think of it as a play where people sing and dance in it. It's kinda quite well done so perhaps thats why he seemed to be more fun then usual! He have gotten soft on us if anyone would notice!

I can't really describe how the musical goes. Here's just a breif description. Correct me if i am wrong. *Note: There would be singing here and there, but i won't include it inside.

There is a yearly event where the school had to produce a play to participate in the international acting somethin somethin. A girl named Donna, who was talented in singing, dancing and acting, was always chosen as the lead, but she met in an accident which cause her to be physically unwell to participate the event. So the school, having no choice- had to open up an audition.

The news of the talented girl injured and the audition had spread lyk wild fire. Where the PA(performing arts) Society members decided to join the audtion.

Then, the scene move to a soccer boy, who is the star player of his team. He had this secret desire of dancing and decided to join that audition to fufill his dream.

After that, it move to a girl, if i am not wrong, named as ashleigh- It's spelled lyk that; got it from the assistant scriptwriter himself. She, like the soccer boy had a secret desire- but it's the desire to sing and participate. She also had a best friend who is a scriptwriter in the story- who later become steads

So Ashleigh and the soccer guy went to the audition and participate together and got in the final round.

And oh- Ashleigh had a stead in the play who is jude, the one who wrote the play! -The one who Mdm Ho said is handsome durin the play- Sssh don't tell her that! But too bad for Mdm Ho, Ashleigh and Jude are stead in real life. Don't ask me how i know, i have my sources- a reliable one to boot!

News of them being able to enter the final round of the audition were heard by the PA society members. And they tried to 'sabo' them of being late because they believe that the non-musical people should not be included in the play AS firstly, It should be the PA society's job to do a play and secondly, Ashley and soccer boy were inexperience of any PA stuff. But they failed miserably. And the pair became the lead roles of the play.

I said before- it's just a breif description on how it goes. becuz i have bad memory xP

The musical kind of reminds me of High School Musical, especially the girl named Cathy; the leader of the PA society. She totally acts like sharpay evans(ashley tisdale) in the series- The way she talks, the way she move herself as well as her squeaky voice. Too bad she doesn't have a brother in the musical who follows her all the time, she's also not rich too in that play xP

The Musical's theme song is "Yo Vivo Cantando"- i live to sing, is actually the new song we are going to learn NEXT!!! Well, we have the score alrdy- it's just that we haven touch on it yet xP. I am so soo looking forward to it- it sounded cool on stage during the musical. I wonder if we would produce the same or better yet, stronger sound? Anyway, i have a hunch that, "Yo Vivo Cantando" would be one of the songs we are going to sing at the end-year concert! You know, the combine choir concert i talk about in my first post!!

To tell you the truth- i kinda hate the solo parts in the musical xP Don't ask me why, i just hate it. Although i admire their courage to sing infront of the crowd alone, but yea, still hate it.

- Several changes to the description- due to Dr. Lim; he corrected me :)

Well, that's what happened on tuesday, now i am moving on to wednesday.

Since it's suppose to be 'guys' day- the guys are suppose to lead the warm-ups. Which include physically and vocally. ANd since VRA's is busy on that day, guess who lead the vocal warm-up? If your guessing me, then ur correct. Ok, so i was leading the vocal warm-up HALFWAY, when Mr. Chen came. I was lyk, "GOD save me~!". Too dramatic? I know, but i was just trying to exaggerate the point that I am sooo pressurise when he's here. Esp when he comment to me, about the choir not sounding good enuff and such- and ask me to tell them what i expect from them. The first few tries are CRAP! The floor is literally clean becuz the voice produce sucks(no offense). But for some god-knows-what reason, a miracle happened- suddenly the sound produced improved tremendously; that would be an understatement, if you get what i mean. And i was Mr.Chen nodding his head. I wonder if the choir do it becuz mr chen is here so they do it because they pity me or is it that I can lead warm-ups? Let's hope it's not becuz of the first reason they did it. IF it is, don't tell me about it. :)

The rest of the day is lyk normal choir days. Mr chen teach us how to sing, we sing and that's that. We are now doing back "RainForest Song"- perhaps it's for the upcoming concert(I forgot what name it is). Anyway, I am totally obsessed with rainforest song, because of the 2nd last page; the part where the guys go, " the under story" over and over again, and the sopranos came in with, " on the ground level" after 4 bars of music and etc etc. If there's no 2nd last page- i would probably dislyk the song.

Anyway during the rehearsal, when Mr. Chen is teaching the sopranos to sing the "Oooo~" part, Luigi and I were lyk arguing about which of the 3 songs we sang during the awards day are our favourites. Obviously, he chose "Cui Dong Cui followed by You raise me Up then RainForest" while i chose " Rainforest, Cui Dong Cui and then You raise me up". I don't really lyk you raise me up cause i don get to sing high notes much :( And i had to use the deepest of my voice to sing that song.

Guess what led to our little arguement? It's because of the syncopation rainforest song has! Mr chen asked us to keep repeat the lines as long as we don't get the part correct. And because of syncopation, we kept singing the part wrongly and well, Luigi was lyk saying, " i hate this song". In a playful manner i guess. xP

I guess i wrote quite abit of words today. But oh well, i am making the blog "alive" as much as possible. Hope it helps :)

You know you love me,

Hi, the so-called-teddy is here,

I hardly do blogging. Actually, i never does and hardly have any experience with it. But i did it today, now, was becuz of of a special reason; not telling you unless u plead me for it xP

This blog doesn't look lyk it's dead nor alive- but i wouldn't really call it half-dead either. Kinda whacky in some way- although it's not. I don't even know what i am typing about at this moment of time, but i would make do with it for now.

Anyway, i am SOOOO lookin' forward to the end of year! There would be a concert where CHOIRS- most lykly mr chen's, would join together and SING~. Mr chen made a rough gauge that it would be a OVER 200+ ppl choir. Ain't that totally awesome? Anyway jus to let you know, i am being awesome about meeting the other tenors..and yes tenors u heard me- it's kinda cool knowing ppl who can sing high lyk myself and such; esp since our choir have lyk only 3 tenors, which was lyk, gosh(no offense) and not about where we are going to sing. I do hope i made quite a number of friends there. And oh, i also hope not to embarass myself, i am afterall a newbie with only 2 years experience in singing and no musical background, compared to them, psst! i hav nothing to say. LOL

I am also looking forward to the tuesday concert! Even though i get to skip some class- which was only about half an hour which TOTALLY -toot-. I kinda hate that fact though, cuz i would hav to make a 'dramatic leave' during class, which i am sooo sure that they would go O.O. where "oooh" and "aarhhs" could be heard. -I think that would be extremely annoyin', won'cha think?
And oh, the lesson i would be leaving on tuesday would be during CME led by mdm tan. I wonder if you would call it a bliss in disguise? Although i would call it a gift from heaven if i had to leave during a science class( both pure chem and physics). Don't ask me why- cause i believe the answer is obvious. But if you didn't figure it out- you could always ask urself this question and the answer would be right infront of you. "what possible situations would there be when i want to leave a class due to a teacher?".

That's it for now i guess- now that i scroll up and look at what i have written, i kinda blabber around too much- hope you wouldn't find it boring and such. Constructive Flames and critisms are allowed- although i don't actually think anyone would do it. So anyway, see yar' ppl.

P.S. -add me on my hotmail- yap-poh-heng@hotmail.com <-- kinda lame i know, i made this account when i was p5 okay and it's kinda bothersome to make a new one.

Friendly Reminder.. ^^

2008-06-28T10:20:00.000-07:00

see ,
kind jane has updated this DEAD blog again .

i did it while you all are having CHOIR .
MUAH HAHAHAHA ~~

but anyways ,
by the time all my editing is done ,
you all may have already ended .
GRRRRRR ~

a few pointers to all choir members :

PLEASE OPEN YOUR MOUTH - this helps you to pronounce properly and it is good for singing
STOP FIDGETING - this causes a lot of distractions not only to the instructors and your friends . and , you all will get scolded in the end .
CHIT-CHAT NO NO - you can chat but not too much that you did not pay attention to mr chen and he starts to erupt again .
USE YOUR DIAPHRAGM - you can hear the difference when you use and when you not use your diaphragm . it's obvious ; unless it's done wrongly .
LISTEN - don't talk talk talk talk . cause you can never catch mr chen surprising notes . really .
CO-OPERATE - COME ON , we all know it is hard to speak infront of mass audience , so listen to the person conducting any warm ups . it's beneficial . do not sing without warm ups . it hurts the throat .

okies .

these are what i've seen today .

which i hope i won't the next visit xD

those who wants to be linked ,

TAG !!

if you are not link the next day ;

CHOIR;26march

2008-03-26T21:30:00.000-07:00

Today for choir many of us did not do our homework.
& end up getting scolded for it.
as for the tenor , bass & alto they had done well today "claps claps"
we finish the song You Raise Me Up today.

hoping that all choir members will turn up for practise from now on
and make sure they do thier work.
sectional leaders(except sec 4, you guys need to study!) please check on thier work.

The sec 4 need to concentrate on their studies so we should not be relying on
them anymore.
please spend sometime on your work.
