Date: Wednesday, November 11, 2009
Time: 6:32 PM

Musical notes glowing in the dark, they can shine. So can we.

To all band members:

Wear P.E shirt + P.E shorts/ Band tee + P.E shorts on Friday (13/11/2009).
No skirts are allowed. (For girls)
Report to the band room by 8.30am, SHARP.
There'll be 2 hours of sectional, followed by 2 hours of drills.
Band will still end @ 1pm.
Leave the school as soon as possible after you all are dismissed.
Do your duties after every band practice and keep the band room clean.
Both feets on the ground to sit half the chair at all times.
Why do we need to have both feets on the ground and sit half the chair?
This is so that you all will cultivate the habit of sitting in the right way for better breathing techniques.

During sectional, practice Heatherwood and Prince Of Egypt as much as possible. Nothing is too difficult. It's only if you all are willing to sight read and improve on your own or to sit and wait for people to teach. Apply what you've learnt from other songs and put it into use for the other songs. You all have to learn by yourself and I believe you all can do it. Just try, don't hesitate. Don't procrastinate. Believe in yourself. Give your all when you play and even when you get scolding, it's perfectly all right because at least you will be able to learn from your mistakes than to keep those mistakes buried and you'll never know where you've gone wrong. Band members of YCCB are strong and courageous people right!? :D Work hard and it will definitely pay off! Believe. Believe, just believe.

Listen to this song, cornets melody, when you believe.

With Love,
BM. (Jacquelyn)
