Lunchtime Performance Platform @ Millennia Walk on 5th/6th/9th Nov 2007

Dear Sec 1s,

Check this out - a very good opportunity for those of you who would like some exposure and an audience! Anything goes, from small chamber groups, duets, solo... Let me know if you would like to perform and I'll get in touch with the organiser (so I can negotiate for better timings, etc). State your availability (date AND time), the composers/ titles AND length (timing) of the piece(s) you want to play. ASAP! 1 or 2 pieces per person/ group is ideal.

Just a note - I will be doing O Level Invigilation on the 6th so will be unable to be at Millenia Walk, but other days I'll be there if there are any of you playing! For encouragement and support :D

This is the original message from the organiser ------

Dear Teachers,

As part of their programme, The Substation is providing a performance platform at Millennia Walk Atrium for students, especially those in the Music Elective Programme.

To sign up, please send a request to annabelle@substation.org with your contact details and proposed repertoire and length of your programme. Students may perform more than once if they wish, but they should indicate this in their email response.

The dates currently available for performances are:

5th November 2007 (Monday)

6th November 2007 (Tuesday)

9th November 2007 (Friday)

Thank you.

Hello my dear Sec 1s,

Hope you are enjoying your e-learning (holi)day! Thought I'd post something here in case you get tired and need to relax :)

I am very happy to say that I've just been looking at your overall results for the whole year, and ALL of you passed MEP! Not only that, you did really really well too, and I'm proud of especially those who have made tremendous improvement in the subject! I know it is a challenging subject, but you have all done yourselves proud by doing so well! So YAY to all of you!

So go on, enjoy the long weekend, and hope to see your SIGNED exam papers soon! (REPS! I WANT THE PAPERS!)

1e8 people, thanks to all of you who handing your files in for checking... everyone of you handed in your files! A lot of lovely lovely files, all well-organised and neat and colourful! I'm done with them, you can come collect them back from me anytime!

Good luck people, study hard and do yourself proud!

Dear Sec 1s,

You should have received your final term exam timetables by now! Here is some important information regarding your exams.

1) Performing exams

-- Thursday 13th and Friday 14th September 2007, 2pm to 6pm (both days)

-- The performing schedule is up on the MEP noticeboards on Level 4 (near Janacek room). Please check for your day and time, and indicate which instrument(s) you will be playing.

-- You can play either 1 long piece or 2 shorter pieces, to a total timing of 4 - 6 mins. You may choose to play either solely on your 1st instrument, or one piece on your 1st instrument and one piece on your 2nd instrument.

-- If you are playing an instrument that requires accompaniment (such as violin), be sure to arrange your accompanist in advance and ensure they can make it for your timeslot. If they are unable to, you can do a mutual swop with someone else (be sure to ask permission before swopping!). Mark the swop CLEARLY on the performing schedule.

-- On the day of your exam, be sure to bring your instrument (if you need one), and arrange for any page-turners, music stands, extra chairs as required. You are to submit one photocopied set of your scores (instrumentalists please provide the full score, i.e. with the accompaniment part)

2) CA Papers

-- In my happiness at your great results this term, I forgot to ask you to get your papers signed. So please do obtain your parent's signature on your CA paper, and Nina and Cherlyn help to collect please! Tell your friends if they do not regularly read this blog as well, thanks all!
