Thursday, April 9, 2009
1) Take care of your body.2) Cancel/Ignore all other activities (School activities, inform Ms Wong beforehand)3) Expose yourself to more CO music and get the feelings(Ours is those smoothing but sometimes got the ongoing/forward-looking force. Both songs)4) Go to my blog "http://hi-donaven.blogspot.com/"Listen to Ju Hua Tai (smoothing)
Jiang Jun Ling (smoothing & ongoing/forward-looking force)
Feng Nian Ji (smoothing & ongoing/forward-looking force)
Mo Li Hua by Nanyang Girls (Identify their flaws and strengths, reflect & recommend improvements)
Chun (The front part similar to chun yue fen fen)
5) Identify which part of the CHAN GE and CHUN YU FEN FEN is smoothing and forward-looking force relate them to pictures or scenes.
EG,
CHAN GE front part is walking into a forest with mist (cello)and birds(chimes, vibraphone, yang qin). Cicada start screeching (sheng). Morning sun, birds coming out (Tan Bo Yue), slight wind(hu qin, dizi).
(Smoothing)
Afternoon came Cicada become active (Bar 57 onwards). Cicada full of hope, roaming around forest (melody). Cicada sreeching (Dizi "pi pi pi pi"). Last three notes is cicada calling.
(Forward-looking)
CHUN YU FEN FEN front part slight wind(hu qin and cello base), water droplets (dizi). Flowers start opening, sun coming out (Hu qin melody + Whole orchestra come in)
(Smoothing to strong)
Dizzle (Tan bo yue). gust of wind, light raining (hu qin melody), wind (dizi trail), rain getting smaller(dizi & gao hu solo). Water droplets and gradually people coming out (Bar 77 to 98).
(Smoothing)
Vibrant place full of children and adults (Bar 140 to 155),
(Forward-looking)
Beautiful mountains and scenery (Cello, whole orchestra).
(Smoothing)
Human activities begins and slowly reduce(Bar198 to 216).
(Forward-looking to gentle)
Dizzle (Tan Bo Yue), Wind (Xiao), Water droplets (dizi and pipa solo), wind getting weaker (vibraphone and glockenspiel), rain started to stop gradually(hu qin and whole orchestra).
(Smoothing)
*This is how I feel about the two songs although it may not be correct but should be able to help you all get the feelings. I hope that the feelings and Xpressions emphasized by our conductors and instructors can be make possible by our CO members.
Everytime the music came out from you must melt your heart.
