Dearest trumpeters , work hard for the upcoming SIBF . Remember what Ms Loh , Mr Lim , Siang Joo , Shaz all have said . I know that there are some of you who can't play a certain part of the pieces (including me) , but that doesn't mean that you should stop playing or just give up . That shows that you should work even harder & practice more . During combine or sectionals , don't just play out , must also take note of articulations , dynamics , hold the note for full value , listen to intonation & be IN TUNE ! If you know that you are not in tune , quickly adjust . For the 'Concert Warm-Ups & Chorales' just now , i'm sure we can do better then that . ***DON'T FORGET THE TEST THAT SJ GAVE the section !
