Music Theory Class
Today, we have our blues practical assessment. The piano group went first. I think my group was good but I did a bit mistake at the end because when copying my melody into the music book, I did it in a hurry so I cannot read my writing in the end. Then, the guitar group went next. I think they are all good although some need more practise. Next, the violin group did their assessment. I think they are all good too. The violin group played separately in each key. Some had different key for their song but all of them are great. The flute group came last. They did it one by one as they, too, used different keys but all was great. Next,we had our instrument class
Piano Class
In piano class, we were given inspiration from videos of jazz performers. I think they were all skilled and played great. I was inspired by a duet shown in the video when one plays and the other would play after she played, like someone having a conversation. Then, we were told about our next assignment which was having a group performance of jazz. We were asked whether we prefer to have the group divided as the same instruments or mixed instruments. Personally, I prefer having mixed instruments because we never did it this way and would be a chance for us to learn more. We were also given a sheet on one of the jazz song choices. Next, I should try playing what was in the sheet.
