This video was when I am practising the intro for my composition. I think the intro was better played that the composition and was more easier to memorize. So next, I should keep practising the composition with the intro but focus on the composition itself for the practical assessment.

This video was when I was trying to memorize the song. I think I still need to memorize some parts of the song especially the endings of each part and the chords. Next, I should practise this until the endings are correct and the chords too.
Wednesday, 24 November 2010
This was taken when I practise my composition with my music book. I think I played better when looking the book but next, I should practise not seeing the book but memorizing it. It should also be played fluently.
Tuesday, 9 November 2010
This video is when I played my composition in a faster tempo to make it more fluent. I think I need to have more practise as the left hand still makes some mistakes. Next, I should try to memorize it.
Tuesday, 2 November 2010
This video was taken when I am practising the 32 bar composition of my song. This was quite okay for starting to practise. Next, I should keep on practising maybe a little faster so that when I go slow next time it can be more fluent.
Tuesday, 19 October 2010
Today, I played and practised the minor harmonic scales from C-B with both hands but only in one octave. I think I still need more practise in making it fluent and also memorizing some scale that I haven't remembered. Next, I should be more fluent in these scales.
Monday, 18 October 2010
This is a video of when I practised the left hand broken chords from C major to B major. I think I must be more familiar with the pattern so I can be more fluent in playing. Next, I should keep practising these broken chords for my composition accompanion.
Tuesday, 12 October 2010
This video is when I played the broken chords for the left hand given in music class earlier. I tried it at home for only C major. I think my hand posture should improve and be more like a circle rather than flat on the piano. Next, I should practise these with other scales as well, from C-B.

Music Theory Class
Today, we finished the rehearsal that wasn't done yesterday. I got my chance yesterday so today I just watched the others rehearse. I think they are all improving and was very good, some fluent already. Today we were told that it is our last rehearsal so next I should prepare for the practical assessment next week.
Piano Class
Today, I learned a lot in improving my song. Firstly, I was told by Mr Herry to put dynamic on my song which include where the climax is. Secondly, I was guided in making a intro for my song. Thirdly, I learned how I can change the chords in my song. I think through these feedbacks and new knowledge, I could improve my playing for the practical assessment. Next, I will practise this at home so I do not forget the intro and also the dynamic and practise so that I can choose whether to change the chords of my composition.

Today, we were given another time to practise like last week, to do rehearsal. Because I forgot to bring the hard copy of my composition, I copied it from Mr. Herry's computer into my music notembook when it is time to practise. During the rehearsal, Mr. Herry recorded all of our play. I think I need more practise and memorize. I also came late at this session which means I'll have to hurry when going the the locker. I had upload my video and comment those who had upload their videos. Next, I should try memorizing and keep uploading the blog.
Tuesday, 16 November 2010
Today, we were given time to practise our composition for continuing the rehearsal yesterday. Since I've done it yesterday, today I just watched those who had not played yesterday. I think they were all good but we all still nedd to practise. We did not have any instrument class. Next, I should print my hard copy of the composition for next rehearsal and upload video in my blog also commenting others'.

Today, we rehearse for the practical assessment but not all get their chance of rehearsing. I got my turn but I didn't bring my hard copy so I have to look at the projector for my work in finale. I think I still need more practise, especially for the left hand. Next, I should keep practising this and print my hard copy so that it would be better for me to play next time. I was also told about a new task which is to upload video of us practising in our blog and comment others' video to give feedback for them and get feedback for ourselves.

This is the video of my second practise. I think this was better than the first because the A part was correct but I still need to improve on some of the fingering. Next, I should try memorizing it.
Monday, 15 November 2010
This is a video of when I practise my own composition. I think I need more practise especially in the fingering and when the left hand move to change chords. I also need to work on hte last 2 bars of the A in AA'BA' part since it was wrong. So in the next practise I should keep in mind of the things above.

Today, those who are late was asked to sing the Indonesian song. Then, we were told about our written notation quiz that we did last time about minor scales. Then, from each instrument, 2 people were picked to play their composition. I played mines and heard the others play. I think they have good songs. Next, we were told that there will be rehearsal next time for the practical assessment.
Piano Class
Today, I practise my composition while Mr. Herry taught the violin class because the violin teacher didn't come. I still must to memorize my song because I haven't tried to memorize it yesterday.

Music Theory CLass
Today, Mr. Herry gave comments and motivation for us first before our lesson. Then, our socre of the booklet that we did last term: mines about reggae, was rold. I think the score was good and was satisfied with it. Then, we were shown different examples of the 32 bar composition for different instruments. I think they all did great in making their own composition. Next, I should practise my own composition and check whether it match with what Mr. Herry requires us to do and include.
Piano Class

I think their composition was all so good. One of my friends had even memorized it. Next, I should keep practising and try to memorize it.

Music Theory class
Today, our 32 bar composition task was asked to be copied in a sheet. I also put the title but wasn't sure of it. I forgot to bring my laptop and the music book so I dont have my composition with me. Because of this, I have to try to remember the melody that I created the best I could and copied it down in the paper. I think I need to be prepared next time with either the laptop or the melody in the music book. Next, I should email the 16 bar melody today and 32 bar melody and the lyrics on Friday.
Piano Class
This piano class, I played the 32 bar melody that I made. Because I didn't bring the laptop nor the melody in music book, I have to figure out the chords again from the top. I got another suggestion from Mr. Herry to change some chords that I think was different from the one at home. After this, I remembered that I have my 16 bar melody in my USB so I save the file to the school's computer. But the USB does not have the edited part where I change the ending of the A' yesterday. So, I still have to email the final 16 bar melody today but save it first at music class. Next, I should remember emailing it and the 32 bar with lyrics.

Music Theory Class
In this class, our 16 bar task was checked. I brought my laptop to show my work in finale. When it was checked, I was said that my 16 bar work's ending of the A' part wasn't good. I realized this, too, when I made it at home. Now, through Mr. Herry's suggestion, I know what to change it into. I think my melody is now better. Then we discussed this topic and was told that we can make either ABACA or AA'BA' whichever we prefer. Next, I should practise the AA'BA' 32 bar melody that I had made.
Piano Class
In today's piano class, I play the 32 bar melody that I made in my laptop in the piano. Mr Herry and I disucssed and found out some chords didn't match the melody. I think the melody was now, overall, okay. So, I get to change some of the 16 bar and the 32 bar. Next, I should put the lyrics and the changes that I made into those two melodies in finale.

Music theory class
In music theory class today, I did a quiz on minor scales including natural, harmonic, melodic scales. I think I did quite good and have understood what I learned previously. Next, I should make the 16 bar melody to be submitted next Monday. I should also continue my blog.
Piano Class
In piano class, I was asked to do the 16 bar homework that we were ased to do. also, when we are done, we were asked to make 32 bar melody with the same AA'BA' pattern with 8 bars each. I think I will ahve to hurry and catch up with the 16 bar and 32 bar task. So next, I should make it at home in the finale.

Music Theory Class
Today, we revise minor scales, minor harmonic and minor melodic scales. We were explained about intervals one more time. I think I have understood minor scales already now. Next, I learned how to fill in 16 bars chords with AA'BA' pattern due next week in Finale. I think this task can be completed for next week. We were then told to ask the signature of our parents for the notation test and do the 16 bar melody for next week.

Music Theory Class
This theory class we discussed the homework that I did yesterday which is minor natural, minor harmonic and minor melodic scales. I think I should learn more about melodc scalles because it is still confusing for me. Next, I should memorize the formula for all minor scales so I would understand it better.
Piano Class
Today I played minor scales: natural, harmonic and melodic one octave of A,E,B, and F# scales. I think I should keep practising this. Next, I should continue other minor scales after F# minor.

Today, we learn about major scales, minor scales, minor harmonic scales and melodic scales. I learned how to find the relative minor scale from the major scale. Then, we were given the formula for each minor scales (natural, harmonic, melodic). I think I understand scales better now. Next, I should make E major and C# minor scale in my music book and minor harmonic and melodic scales C,G,D,A and E. I did it in class already but I found the melodic scales more difficult.
Piano Class
This class, we played the broken chords left hand like last week but this time from C-B. I think I need more practise especially for those other than C scale. Next, I should practise minor, minor harmonic, minor melodic scales from C-B and also these chords.
