This is my last video practice for this week. I was practicing the I got rhythm. Hoever, in this practice I don't think I did that well because I made mistakes and maybe this is because I was not fully concentrating on this piano. So, next time I should be more focus while playing.



This is my practice video. I was still practicing for the I got rhythm song Jazz performance. I think I am already fluent in this practice and I am already happy enough. However, I still need to practice again though because I don't want to make it worse than this for my assessment this coming wednesday.

-Today we get our score for assessments in music class on term 3. I think I am pretty much satisfied except for the singing i dont feel that good. Then we also had another Jazz rehearsal. I am very happy because now we get ore positive feedback saying that we made an improvement. I am very happy. We just need to work on some little things such as the face expression when playing and such. I just hope that we can perform like this on our next meeting because on the next meeting it is already our assessment.

-Today we have another Jazz group rehearsal. I think this time due to some changes that we made we did not perform that well and as well as we expected. We made quite a lot of mistakes because we were not that cooperative and that is because we havent had enough practice especially with this changes that we made. So that is why I think we need to spare some of our free time maybe during lunch or after school to have an extra practice for this.

This is my other practice video for this week. I think this practice is better than the last one because now I am able to play faster which is the desirable tempo for this song. However, I still slip in some parts. Those are the parts that I will need to work more on and improve more on.



This is my practice video. I was practicing for the Jazz group performance which is the "I got Rhythm" song. I think here, due to some changes, I play it a bit slow. This is because I am still not that fluent with this one yet. Therefore, all I need is more practice so that I can be more familiar with it and more fluent

-Today we have a special guest that performed to us a song called the "Lilin-Lilin Kecil" which was originally composed by this special guest. I think they are very good. Then we were also told to write our reflection about the Jingle song that we composed. We were also told to write a checklist. I think that I am quite good overall in this term 4 so far. However, I still need to update my blog more on time. Then we also have another practice for the Jazz group performance. We made some changes this time because last time, Mr Herry told us that our performance is just too short. For next time we just need to practice together again.

-Today we submit our finale jingle song which is already the final one. I think my melody is better now. I made some major changes because the draft one was really bad and some of the instruments are not supporting my theme for the jingle song. Then we also get to see our video frm the last Jazz group rehearsal. I think my group was not that good actually because we were not as cooperative as the other groups. That was what we were lacking and therefore we need more extra time to practice together for next time.

This is my other practice video from this week. I think i didnt do that well this time because I was trying to make it as a fast tempo but then I arrived with rushing too much and therefore making so many mistakes. I think this is still a problem to me and I need to improve on it on the next practice.



This is my practice video for this week. I think this time I play the tempo a little bit faster than usual. That is because from my previous practice with my group we decided to make the song a little bit faster. However, because this is my first time playing fast, I make few mistake and it is not as good as before. So, that is my challenge as well and in the next practice i need to improve on it.

-Today we saw some inspirational videos from youtube from some of the favorite artists and musicians. Then we also listen to Greg and Adrian singing "Tears in Heaven" because they have not done the group singing assessment. I think they sing qutie well although some are a bit too low for them to sing. Then we listen to the Jazz group performance. I think this time my group did quite well. The teachers also said we did better than our last rehearsal, obviously. So, I am very happy. However we still need to practice harder because the other groups are still better than our group.

-Today we listen to our class jingle's song and we were told to give some feedbacks to our friends so that they could improve before submitting the final copy. I think my melody is bad and i want to improve it again because my melody is suppose to be for a baby product but then some instrument make it too low and does not match for the theme. I think i want to improve it by changing some of the instruments. Then we also practice for the Jazz group together and this time i think my group were a lot better than our last practice. We just need to keep on practicing to make it more fluent.



This is my practice video again. I was still practicing the I Got Rhythm for the group Jazz performance. I have to practice this as often as i can because it is very important and it is one of my music assessment. That is why I need to practice this hard. Also I need to practice together with the other instruments because that is the hardest part to be cooperative with the others for next practice.

This is my practice video. I was practicing for the "I got Rhythm" again. I think I did pretty well here because now I become more fluent than before. I just slip on some notes on the middle but that is not really that significant so I think I am good with it. For the next practice I think I just need to practice with my group because that is more important than practicing individually.

-Today we have the real group singing assessment. The first group was Anthony and Daniel. Then it was Ardhito, Martinus and Erik. They did pretty well actually. Then it was Nissa and Rifky and I think they did very well because they sing very well and they also memorize the lyric. Then it was my turn with Jennie and Tiffany. I think my group is not that good because even though we hit the right pitch but we forget some lyrics. Imez and Pandu did well also but they still read the lyrics. Michelle and Reynaldi also did an excellent job. As for me, I think next time I need to improve better by practicing more often or just maybe go to someone's house to practice longer.

-Today we have our group singing assessment. I think my group has not really prepare that well. We are still confused on what we need to sing. Then we decided to just sing "Love Story" by Taylor Swift. However, obviously we still need to practice more. Thankfully, Mr Herry said that this was only a rehearsal. The real assessment will be on the next meeting. So, we decided to change our song and we also plan to rehearse and practice everyday after school or just during our free time.

This is my other practice video. I was still practicing and singing the "firework" from katy perry. I think I made no improvement than my previous practice. I really think that I need to try harder in memorizing the lyrics because I am not that good in memorizing and that is why I have to try harder. In my next practice, which is my last practice with my group I will try my best to try to memorize.



This is my practice video. I was practicing singing "Firework" by Katy Perry. This is the song that I will be singing with my group which consists of me, Jennie and Tiffany. I was trying to sing and memorize the lyrics first but it is still very hard. So, on the next practice I would like to try to memorize the lyrics so that I am ready for the assessment.
