Songs for the Collaboration Concert

I know not all of you guys are learning to play these songs but they are great songs and you guys can still listen to them and maybe learn them in your free time? :D


Cerf-volant (the kiteflying song) from the french movie Les Choristes


la valse d'amelie from the french movie Amelie


Married life from the pixar movie Up

I don't know why we have two french songs but as long as they are nice...

Enjoy.

It is quite a lot but do realize that we have a lot to do next year and seeing our standard, i think we NEED this. i know some of the timings are a bit weird but we have no choice as our instructors are busy and have their own lives too, so please try and cooperate and turn up okay?

Oh do note that only the ones playing for the collaboration concert peeps will have to come for the practices entitled 'collab concert practice', sorry that this has to be so troublesome but im sure it will be really fun experience come next year

Please Please Please practice at home during the December holidays as well, it will be greatly appreciated if you do get a guitar clear folder as well. (you will need it next year)

Thank you!

Hello everyone!

Hey guys, Belle here.

I edited the layout (because Serene Chew says the old one is hard to look at), and I myself hate clicking those buttons that bring you to various pages, so hopefully you understand why this one's so simple and clean and shows everything you need to know all in one page!

By the way, I'm not some Exco member and I'm doing this purely because I think this blog needs redefining. (HAHA, SORRY SERENE, HAD TO TYPE THAT! Rub it in, yo.)

Anyhow, there's still much to be improved. I did this skin based on those Blogger-provided ones, because I am lazy to search Blogskins, and I really don't know where to start (as my taste is so different from everyone else's). I was thinking about putting a "links" section, but I don't know whose links to put down, and so I was thinking if anyone's interested in having your link here, leave a comment on the tagboard? And hopefully I will see it soon enough to put your link on this blog. HAHA. Should we also have those kinda "leadership rosters" to show who the Exco is? Or like a section stating "upcoming events", I really don't know. How about "contact information"?And if you guys do want these sections, the Exco needs to mail me the revelant documents (heh) so that I can incorporate them into the blog OR you guys can just go do it yourself.

So, constructive comments are welcomed regarding the layout. I think we should totally post stuff here, the blog is rotting and in bad condition. Anyhow, I've kinda ran out of stuff to crap.

My last words before I end this post: please be nice and come for practice. Don't take Guitar for granted, because if you're all gonna treat this as a slack CCA, it'll FOREVER be a slack CCA, you've gotta change that horrible mindset of yours.

Thanks!
Belle.

HEY!

Here are some pics of guit 2 practicing which I didn’t have time to upload before.Very hardworking! We had extra prac.

Mingyang treating us to drinks!

The video of guit 1 and 4 singing is so funny. HAHAHAHA. Note how Ben was totally enjoying himself, swaying the piece of rolled paper like a happy old man. Of course the singing of scherzino mexicano with the whole ensemble was better, but I think no one caught that

. video

Here’s the exco shopping for cloth! There are some unglam pics of many of them but I shall not post it here in fear of retaliation. Haha



Anyone who has any other random pics pls post! Once again, well done for the performance today. It’s enough to know that we didn’t disappoint ourselves cos we gave our best and there are no regrets. Enjoy the little break from CCA and we’ll meet again soon to practice fun little pieces for the pure pleasure of playing as an ensemble.

Love, pinfang
