Music - 25th of November

We had quite a bit of a delay for this week's Music Lesson, unfortunately Wednesday but taken up by flexible learning day. But this lesson we still managed to go through our winter composition and through Winter Wonderland at least once.

For our Winter Composition, at first everyone practised with all the other instruments with Mr.Fox except for the Tenor Players the beginning of the piece. We had to think of two notes that fitted for a quieted drumrolls whilst everyone played their separate ostinatos . Around this bit, the Tenor Players practised along with us. In the end, it sounded great, I had zero difficulties with this task what so ever!

For Winter Wonderland, we worked section by section, first section A & B. We were fully on point for section A, but section B needed a little bit of work. After we fitted everyone's notes together, we then started to work on section C which seemed to be the hardest bit. I found in between section B & C the most difficult, because it involved a various changes of notes, in one bar of section B the notes were very far apart (distanced) and we had to play them very fast. This is difficult for me to remember and I kept messing up quite a lot of the time. I think for next lesson, I should try and keep in time more.

We repeated both tunes several times until we got it perfect, although Demi and Naomi were missing throughout the whole lesson because they had other musical lessons to attend. But overall we got quite a lot done, cant wait till next lesson
