rws-trumpeters!

hey trumpeters,

Okay, i know that you all had tried your best during the KL trip.
After all, i think that we did great in making friends, learning from one another and performing too. [even it's not very good]
But at least we tried our best.
And i think this trip has made us more and more bonded!
Sometimes i even i even think that our section is the best bonded section in the whole band.!
thats a great thing.
Even zhiting is not with us, we still can feel that she around us. [:

Hahah,
There will be a new warm up sequence.

1. Breathing exercise [will explain later]
2. Buzzing with mouthpiece for 4 counts and repeat for 4 times. [concert Bb, Eb, F]
3. Play concert Ab for 16 counts, concert Bb for 8 counts, concert Eb for 4 counts, concert F for 2 counts.
4. Lip slurs [ number 23, 24, 25 ]
5. Tune.

The breathing exercise is the exercise we actually learnt when we are having sectionals with the zhonghua trumpeters.
And for those who don't know or forgotten, i will explain to you now.

First, put you arms together and when you breathe in, you slowly open up your hands.
When you breathe out, you slowly close back you hands for 8 counts and repeat it for 4 times.
after 8 counts, you do for 4 counts repeat for 4 times and then 2 counts for 8 times and 1 count for 8 times also.
The closing or opening of hands must be with the tempo.


okay then, bye
