The concert will also feature the NYJC and PJC choirs, and conducted by Mr Terrence Toh.

Hi guys!

The younger ones might not have heard of me... but I'm Christina, formerly the choir's student conductor and alto section leader who graduated in 2009. :)

Just felt really urged to come here again after almost 2 years to post something after watching you guys sing at the Sing For Japan concert last night. I have to say the few of us seniors who were there were truly touched by the fact that the choir has definitely been improving. I shouldn't say that the performance was perfect in case you guys start feeling overly contented with yourselves, but watching you guys sing made us really proud of you. This is something that doesn't come by that often in the past (we used to screw up many performances), and I'm glad that such challenges put in our way over the years has grown us indefinitely, as individual singers and as an entire choral body as well.

I think this is definitely a great start to a new chapter of the CCHMS Choir story with the new exco and Mr Low. Please continue to develop your passion for singing and grow collectively as a family, and let the legacy of this choir continue on with generations to come.

Once again, you guys have made us proud!

Sing For Japan!!!!!

Types of Court Shoes

2011-04-03T14:26:00.005+08:00

Hello Choir (girls), so these are the types of shoes you should be wearing :

But first, here's an example of what NOT to wear, unless you wanna fall on your pretty face on stage. Which is a bad thing, I'm sure. (:

Okay, you can wear these kinda wedge shoes, with a much shorter heel length (height) of around 2 inches, because it's equally discomforting and dangerous.

Black flats, also allowed :
Like the 2nd design, with the ideal height, and PLAIN, with none of that weird ribbon thing on the front. (:

Ideal types are like this, which can be found at any Bata shops (Tampines etc. )

PLEASE NOTE :

- Shoes should be PLAIN BLACK design, no patterns, no yellow or silver or whatever colours of the rainbow you can find.

- NO STRAPS or BUCKLES. If you're afraid that the shoes may drop off when walking (remember to test them before you buy), ask your mom to get you heel grips or those cushion thingys for the soles.

- Shoes should be COMFORTABLE. It's best if you try standing in them and spouting a few soft notes in the shop, they should not block your blood flow or hinder your ability to use support in any way.

From now on, bring your shoes for every choir practice (no need for the ones in the early mornings) so we can practice and get used to singing in the shoes for SYF.

Girls, please try the shoes with your costumes when you get home, you shouldn't be in any danger of stepping on your dress or you dress being too short. If it's too long/short, please tell me or Denise or Ms Chong IMMEDIATELY, and we'll see what we can do. (:

SYF IS IN 2 WEEKS. GET PLENTY OF SLEEP! DON'T EAT CHILI, CURRY, SPICY STUFF, OLD CHANG KEE STUFF, KUEH etc! (: ADD OIL!

Who was here :

Yun Shi :D

SYF Venue: SOTA

One of the stairs where you will be exiting the stage

Risers where you will be standing on

View on stage towards the audience

The risers where you will be standing

The holding room before walking on to the stage

These are the pictures of the concert hall where you will be competing in on the 14th April. The acoustics of the concert is made in such a way where the slightest mistake can be easily heard so there must be NO MISTAKES!

Learning points from the SSO Rehearsal

2011-03-05T10:33:00.002+08:00

I was reading through the reflections that you guys passed to me after the rehearsal and i am very glad that most of you learnt many things from the rehearsal, from how a choir should work and even commenting the techniques and sounds of the choir and the orchestra. Among all the well written reflections i want to highlight some of your learning points for others to see. Most of you have almost the same few points however that also means that most of you see the lack of such points in your choir. So here are what some of you reflected....

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I think the choristers, the orchestra and the conductor are putting in 100% effort, potential and focus in the rehearsal, which is something we sometimes lack - Tan Mei Hui

The musicians are listening to the other members of the choir thus their tonality blends with other musicians - Joseph Yap

Professional musicians do not procrastinate and start to rehearse straight away with the conductor - Alexander Tan

It is impossible for a choir to sing well without teamwork - Cao Aoying

I learnt that teamwork is essential in a choir - Jolene Koh

We still lack the accurate pitch, unity and harmony in singing. They produce a '3D' sound everytime they sing (* a sidenote.. meaning you guys produce a 2D sound when you sing?) - Lee Yee Teng

In this rehearsal, there are many instances whereby the performers take their own initiative to take notes and improve. We should learn from them and be more disciplined as a choir - Isabella

I was very inspired by this performance. It seemed to be telling me to strive hard and do my best like all the performers, to create mesmerizing music like this - Gwyneth Thong

When they sing, they stand straight with their feet apart and chests out. This gives them the support needed to project their voices - Tan Yun Shi

They are enjoying what they are doing and they sway naturally - Soon Hui Qi

Another thing i learnt is that 'eyes on the conductor at all times!' - Jacintha Tay

When the conductor is speaking no one is talking and gives him their 100% attention. Only like this can they achieve this level and standard of professionalism - Keziah

They seemed very confident of singing their notes out. I think our choir members need to build this confidence as well - Meng Yue

The scores were just like a reference. This may be why their sound was so cohesive. Free of scores, they did very well in listening to other sections of the orchestra. I think that is what our choir should improve on next - Yang Xiya

The choir maintained a ram-rod straight posture throughout the entire rehearsal. They exemplified self-discipline and there was no chattering among the musicians - Wong Man Ling

I think that since we are a secondary school choir, and our teachers do try to treat us as adults, then we ought to act like adults - Sophie Lau

We must instil self-discipline to know our parts, always look at the conductor and take down details of what to do or what not to do on our music scores - Sherrie Chew

I realised the importance of maintaining discipline whenever the conductor is talking. The rest of the choir needs to be quiet in order for the message that the conductor is trying to convey to be brought across. Also, we need to take down what the conductor tells us, any little detail like pronouncing the words clearly or holding the note longer, for a more productive rehearsal..... We need to have the correct attitude whenever we go for sectionals or combined practices - Denise Tan

Although it was a rehearsal, they respected the time and effort everyone gave and treated it like a real performance - Denise Teo

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

There were lots more and i will put up all the reflections on the choir wall so that everyone can read the reflections in full, even for those that did not turn up for the SSO Rehearsal. Ms Chesed Wong will pick up the best reflection for each level (Choir + Music program students) and they will recieve a free CD.

I really hope you enjoyed the rehearsal and learnt about how a professional choir should behave. Reflect back on your own choir practices and improve.

Time to work together and work hard for SYF!

Mr Ek

SSO Concert Rehearsal on Friday

2011-03-01T14:18:00.002+08:00

These are the names of the students that had NOT passed me their reply slips:

Thiang Soon Wei
Liu Chang
Gwyneth Thong
Daisuke
Yan Hui
Mengyue
Debra
Ling Jun
Jia Min
Yifan
Man Qini
Jesslyn
Mei Hui
Hsin Min
Clara Chong
Milton
Wei Shan
Keziah
Kyle
Ernest

Total - 20

Since there is no reply slip, i am expecting you to be present for this rehearsal. There are 39 students who had passed me their slips and thus i will be booking 1 bus for 41 only. The other 20 students you will make your way down to the Esplanade theatre yourselves. We will be taking your attendance at 6pm at the Esplanade.

If you're absent for the SSO Rehearsal, you will get ZERO for Friday's attendance. You will need to get a MC to submit to me.

If i do not receive your MC, your parents will be called and detention will be given.

The teachers are very frustrated that we have to go through such trouble to get you to submit forms. This is NOT the first time that we have so many students not submitting forms in time even though ample time was given. We will take disciplinary actions from now onwards.

Hi,

As mentioned in the sms, Mr Soon is requesting for your help in the grand finale of the Graduation Ceremony tmr evening.

This year's graduation song is 'If we hold on together' by Diana Ross (Theme song for Land before Time)

We need you to join the class chairpersons on stage tmr evening at the end of the ceremony to sing along to the mp3 of the song. You guys will be stationed in front as you have better singing voices than the rest. All you need to do is just to sing along to the track. There will be lyrics provided for you so you do not need to memorise the song.

There will be a dry run at 4.30pm tmr at the Audi so please be there. We will run through the whole ceremony at that time as well.

Good job on the performance today! I am sure you all felt satisfied and 'shiok' putting off this Huayi performance. However, don't slack off and deteriorate.

Also, we must thank all the teachers (Mr Loh, Ms Chong, Mr Ek) and conductors (Ms Yin, Mr Poh, Mr Low) for helping us in all sorts of ways, be it admin matters or music stuff.

That's all for now! Goodnight everybody! Have a good rest! Make sure to come for practice on Friday! ^^

cheers,

kuoxian

Those who know of this news, please message your SLs or me that you know of this news. SLs, please give me the names of those who didn't reply your message latest by tomorrow.

Also, those who have not pay for the tickets, please bring the money on that day. It should be around $30 or less, not sure of the exact price.

2009-08-14T18:59:00.001+08:00

Hello all,

Presenting to you your
CHOIR COMMITTEE 2009/2010!

EXCO:
President - Chua Pei Ru
Vice-President - Zann Yee (Admin)/ Ngai Kuo Xian (Music)
Secretary - Lim Li Kim
Treasurer - Serene Tan
Resource Manager - Serene Tan

MUSICO:
Student Conductor - Xu Luxun
Soprano SL - Ngai Kuo Xian/ Lim Li Kim
Alto SL - Zann Yee/ Jolene Quek
Tenor SL - Xu Luxun/ Isaac Ho
Bass SL - Goh Jian Wei/ Kyle Teo

I hope that all of you will work together with the new committee regardless of section or gender or whether you like them or not (that was what has been going on for the past years). Enough of choir politics. It isn't easy at all to take care of this choir, so cut your new leaders a little slack by being good and nice. Those who haven't been appointed, please do not be disheartened and lose your passion for this choir and singing, 'cos these are the people who are very "unluckily" going to work themselves out for the choir for the next year. Also, we wanted to give the seniors more chances and opportunities to experience being leaders, thus majority elected this year are sec 3s.

New committee, all the best in leading this choir. It's been great (or sometimes not so) conducting this choir for the past 2 years and everything, thank you everyone for being part of a choir that brings people's emotions to life (be it happiness or sadness or anger).

Once again, all the best!
Christina :D
Student Conductor & Alto SL 2008/2009

2009-06-27T14:35:00.001+08:00

LATEST UPDATE:

If yours SLs have not informed you, tonight's performance at the school anniversary dinner is cancelled.

2009-06-24T17:02:00.000+08:00

Latest update:

Recording session will be on as usual tomorrow despite recent cancellation of activities.
All to have the SATB version of school song memorised.

2009-06-22T12:12:00.007+08:00

LATEST UPDATE FROM SCHOOL:
[Last updated @ 12:37pm]

Due to the cases of students infected with H1N1 in our school, the choir camp will indefinitely be cancelled. Wednesday's practice and the school's SYF Aesthetics Showcase is also cancelled. Also, we would like to reduce the number of people involved in the school's 70th Anniversary Dinner performance to minimise the risk of community spread.

Therefore, only Thursday (25/6)'s practice is still on. Those who feel that there is a need for you to pull out of the anniversary recording and performance due to the H1N1 cases are free to do so, but inform your SLs first.

Farewell & Handover 2009 is also cancelled. New committee will be announced someday somehow by someone while Sec 4s will have to compromise and make do without a proper farewell. Members are to also stop harrassing your SLs to ask them about who were the people who contracted the flu virus.

Also, there will be no refund of your $4 for camp because we already bought all the materials needed, ordered all your food, and the farewell presents before all this chaos happened. So stop asking your SLs on why you can't have your $4 back because WE ALREADY USED THEM UP. Those who haven't paid are expected to pay still. It would be very kindly appreciated if all of you co-operate with your SLs' instructions, especially at this point of time where everything is left in a mess.

Only those who are involved in anniversary dinner recording and performances are required to turn up for practices. There will be no need for Sec 4s to come back for future practices anymore.

Sorry for the inconvenience caused.
All are reminded to keep proper hygiene at all times.

2009-06-21T11:47:00.005+08:00

LATEST UPDATE (IMPORTANT)

There have been 3 confirmed cases of students infected with H1N1 in our school.
All student activities - CCA, Camps etc will be suspended with immediate effect for next week until further instructions are given.
Please check email daily for latest information and the possible need to collate data.

Chung Cheng High School (Main)

Camp is cancelled, whether practices will still go on will be informed again at a later stage.

2009-06-19T20:34:00.003+08:00

UPDATED JUNE HOLIDAY PRACTICE SCHEDULE

24/6 (Wed):
2pm - 5pm

25/6 (Thurs):
10am - 1pm (those in school recording only)
10am - 12.30pm

26/6 (Fri): CHOIR CAMP
8.30am - 9pm

27/6 (Sat): CHOIR CAMP
8.30am - 3pm

Note that all are not allowed to leave halfway through camp.
Farewell & handover 09 has been shifted to the evening slot upon request from teachers.

And, there are still loads of you who still have yet to pay $4 for camp to Peiru.
Also, I have yet to receive all the cards from all of you.
Remember to hand in all consent forms for camp also.

Christina :D

2009-06-10T22:19:00.002+08:00

Hi guys,

I hoped everyone dutifully submitted their $4 to Peiru in order for the comm to start working on the camp. (Yes we need your money for the materials to let the camp proceed, eg we need your money to book your meals or you can just starve and die halfway, seeing how our choir loves to eat. I mean, you guys only think and talk about eating when you're on a break or dismissed tsktsk.)

And I need your cards like soon.

I'll be dropping in soon on you guys to nab some people to do some "making-of" of the camp stuff.
Meanwhile, be good and have fun doing your 1001 pushups/ jumps - while singing.

Also, to the person who has complained about the layout of this place, I'm not exactly in the mood nor do I have the patience to mess around with the template now (or ever). (I've learnt my lesson after repairing the old layout that went bonkers) So I suggest maybe you can wait for the next comm to take over and I'll refer your suggestions to them and they can do whatever they want then. Furthermore, the mood of the choir definitely will not and there's no reason for them to be affected just because of the layout.

And also, I guess no one else was really saddened/shocked by the news of Miss Ng's leaving that really saddened and shocked the comm.

Anyway, till the seniors come back to harrass you guys again.
Christina :D

2009-06-04T18:21:00.003+08:00

Hello choir,

Some changes to the amount of money you have to pay.
Please pay $4 to Kuoxian, Peiru, Isaac (since Luxun is out of town) and Jianwei tomorrow.
And where does the $4 go to?
1) Camp 2) Something that I'll get Peiru to announce tomorrow

Please prepare yourself for some sad/shocking news tomorrow also.
And last of all, please do not give trouble to your sec 3 leaders (bear in mind that they are still part of our 09 comm).
Good luck tomorrow!

Christina :D

2009-05-29T18:39:00.003+08:00

All are to pay $2 for choir camp to your temporary in charge(s) I assigned: Kuoxian, Peiru, Luxun, Jianwei by next practice.

And we have been pulled out from the 3rd June East Zone showcase, all thanks to the lousy attendance (from the guys especially), and that bad attitude of yours which suck which has unfortunately returned after SYF. Happy?

You guys better buck up for the school showcase or else you'll embarrass yourself in front of the whole school and mind you, you still have years in this choir to go. To lose face or to shine, it's your own choice.

Christina :D

2009-05-22T21:28:00.002+08:00

Hello choir,

Attendance was seriously atrocious today.
Latecomers and missing people.
We expect better attendance on Wednesday, because we have to revive our SYF pieces. Super urgent.

Anyway for those who weren't here today (either you had fun ponning or you seriously had something urgent on), you will have to explain to Miss Ng next practice and catch up on your own for Everlasting Melody.

P.S. Anyone who decides to not come for choir anymore cos SYF's over can say goodbye to your SYF points (which I can say is around 7 points, and for comm members even more).

Christina :D

2009-05-21T19:16:00.002+08:00

(Latest Changes)!

Choir practice is at 3.30pm tomorrow, choir room.
No latecomers are to be expected and no, we won't accept any reasons.
(Yes seniors want to be mean for our last few practices with you.)

Christina :D

2009-05-20T18:08:00.002+08:00

Hey choir!

ACJC Choir will be having their concert An Evening with Friends on the 1st of June, 7.30pm at the Esplande. Tickets are sold at $24, those interested can come and look for me (as usual). And in case you didn't know, Natalie our ex-pres is singing so please go support!

Anyway, we will welcome all of you back to choir this Friday (22/5) at 3pm on the dot at Choir Room! Bring your Kasar and Cui Dong Cui scores (yes, them again and them still) cos we're going to have a public performance on the 3rd June with all the east zone school choirs and everyone's doing their SYF pieces. And yes, that's 4 practices to make the choir get back on track and wow the audience again.

As for Sec 4s, 3rd June will also be our last practice with this choir.

Christina :D

2009-05-16T11:38:00.001+08:00

Hello choir,

Choir camp has been scheduled on the 26th and 27th June so far so please make sure you leave yourself available as attendance is made compulsory.

Anyway, the school's anniversary dinner at Suntec that we're supposed to perform at is also on the evening of the 27th June.

Further details will be given at a later date, and practice will resume soon.

Christina :D

2009-04-19T13:47:00.002+08:00

Christina :D

2009-04-18T17:56:00.003+08:00

Hello gold choir,

Miss Lim would like to tell all of you that she's really proud of you all!
Mr Lai, too, says he's very proud of us and it's best news he's had for a while, thanks for tagging by the way(:
Mr Low also, is very happy for all of us and he says well done!

Alot of seniors, ex-conductors, parents and loads of people have been with us throughout our progression to today. Always be mindful that this is only the beginning, next practice will be after midyears/prelims on 22nd May!

Choir go go go! (Okay be happy for the 2 and half weeks only then after that is progression again okay)
Continue to upgrade and improve then I'll give you a nice camp hahaha(:
Christina :D

2009-04-17T22:23:00.003+08:00

Hello world,

It's a
GOLD!

We've done it choir!
Please be mindful that this gold didn't come easy. How we've worked through our Wednesdays, Fridays and Saturdays (and then Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays) these few months and how many times we've failed terribly at workshops or even during our own practises.
And please, please do not commit the same mistakes again and then drop all the way to COP then go up to gold 2 years later cos it's super scary.

No words can describe the amount of gratitude and love we owe Miss Yin. You guys better get honours next SYF to make up for her depression and sorrows over us for the past few months (or even since she took our choir).
Also, Miss Ng, Mr Loh and Miss Cheng has been absolutely supportive of us all these while. Organising exchanges for us, maintaining attendance, excusing us from lessons and all.
Miss Lim's help has been very useful to many of us too.
Mr Poh and Miss Chai's guidance helped us to keep on track.
We also have to thank (ahem) the Committee, especially the (ahem) Student Conductors (which is me and Marilyn hahahah) and the SLs (Marilyn, Ashley, Weishan, me, Peiru, Zann, Asaph, Isaac, Keith and Xiaotong) for always tolerating your nonsense and sacrificing our voices to scream and shout at you and call you back for extra sectionals though you all don't ever turn up.
And of course, everyone single one of these 53 of you who have spent your hours and days and never gave up and contributed to this gold.

And we also should thank Chun Chun Hoarse Voice Tea for keeping our throats safe and sound. Which is thanking Miss Yin again.

I will see you all tomorrow in choir room at the special timing the SLs have told you! (:

Choir #45 2009 made it.
Christina :D

Boys - Blazer, white shirt, pants, black leather shoes, black high socks, school tie. (Don't spike your hair until you look like you got an electric shock, but don't need to gel it until it's super shiny and flat also cos it'll be super obiang).

There'll be a SYF debrief session on Saturday at choir room. Attendance is compulsory, Miss Yin and Miss Lim will be there and we'll get to know various marks and comments from all seven judges.

Tomorrow's the big day, choir go for gold! :D

Hello choir,

Please note that we'll be having SYF rehearsal at VCH tomorrow, 8.50am to 1.40pm.
You are excused from the second period onwards but you'll return to class at 1.40pm (which is only 5 minutes for those who finish at 1.45pm).
All are to bring their choir gown/ blazers and shoes.
Those who did not receive their excuse slips are to find Miss Ng tomorrow after FRC to get them.

And,
VJ Choir will be staging Symphony of Voices 2009, 14th May 7.30pm at the Esplanade.
Tickets are priced at $20, $30 and $40.
Those interested please order your tickets from me.
And it is strongly recommended that you go cos VJ's an extremely good choir (those who went to watch their SOV concerts the past years will know).

Hello choir,

Please be reminded that there will be practice every Tuesday and Thursday morning at 6.45am in the LT 1. Miss Yin will be coming down personally to take us for the short 30 minutes session, so I hope everyone cooperates and make full use of the time.

Please also explain to your parents that these morning practices is necessary as our SYF slot is (again) in the morning so we have to get used to singing in early mornings. Yes, everytime we get morning slots we have morning practices.

Christina :D

2009-03-19T10:28:00.002+08:00

Hello choir,

Due to the good signs of progress for yesterday's practice, our next practice will be tomorrow (20/3), 9.30am to 1pm at the Music Room. Yes, today's practice was kindly cancelled.

And if we make even greater and more impressive progress tomorrow, Saturday's practice will be off also. So it depends, whether or not you want/have to come back on Saturday.

Girls are reminded to bring their shoes on Friday, we're going to polish up the choreography for Kasar.

Christina :D

2009-03-17T19:28:00.003+08:00

Hello choir,

Tomorrow's (18/3) practice venue will be changed to choir room instead as it will be TKGS choir's turn to come over tomorrow for practice.

So please show good discipline and warmth as hosts tomorrow (if you get to see them haha).
And I want everyone to give in their best and all tomorrow, don't want to hear any disappointing nonsense from you all again when the sec 4s come back!

And, practice is as usual on Saturday also, from 8 to 11.30am. Girls are reminded that you are to bring your shoes for every Saturday practice. That means we'll see each other for the whole of the March holidays, everyday. Unless you have valid reasons.

Regarding the CCA points debate on the tagboard. It is most possibly true, but leaders, that doesn't mean that you lose your sense of responsibility and passion in leading your section and the choir. You are chosen as a leader because the teachers see a particular unique quality in you, so please do not disappoint them just because you are probably not getting points for the extra commitments. For those who feel there is a problem with this, please voice out to the school directly cos its their decision. And, Miss Ng has already finalised the committee so there would be no more changes unless she finds that people are not doing their job well, then she'll pull them out.

I'll see you guys tomorrow!
Christina :D

2009-02-21T14:51:00.002+08:00

Hello people,

You all have heard Ms Yin's and Mr Loh's comments about today's (heave a sigh of relief but a not our standard at all) performance, so I guess this is the wake up call for some of you to realise that this is reality and you can't escape it by thinking everyday that "We're gold, we have been gold, and we will be 'cos some great miracle will happen." Because it won't.

Good news (or bad, whatever you call it) for you guys is that, we'll have our one and only SYF Rehearsal on Wednesday (25 Feb) at VCH from about 9am to 12pm. Everyone will report to choir room immediately after flag-raising cos we'll do warm ups and all. For girls, if you have your cot shoes please bring them along so that you can feel the torment of singing and standing still for a whole 15 minutes or so in heels. This is probably our first and last time rehearsing at the actual venue before SYF, so please treat it seriously.

All tenors and basses please be reminded that you will have sectionals on Monday from 5 - 6.30pm at Choir Room and attendance is compulsory (as requested by Mr Loh and your SLs, and Mr Loh will be there).

Everyone is supposed to have memorised Kasar, Cui Dong Cui and White Horses by Wednesday 3pm.

Last but not least, the list of people who owes the choir money for choir tee:
Asaph
Hanfeng
Milton
Eugene
Yi Qun
Alexandrea
Choir tee is $20 and inclusive of this term's choir fund (I think). By instructions of Ms Ng, people without choir tee will not be in the choir. So complain all you want, but if you want to be in choir, the tee's a must.

Also, people who haven't paid for choir black file must pay $3 to Kuo Xian by Wednesday. Same, no choir file, then no scores for you, then that means no choir.

Next workshop will be next Saturday (28 Feb) at Hwa Chong Junior College, and by then we'll probably have our new choir tee so please kindly await the details.

SLs who wish to conduct additional sectionals in choir room outside choir schedules please contact either me, Peiru or Zann for the keys.

Thanks,
Christina :D

2009-02-16T19:26:00.005+08:00

Hey choir,

Please bring $20 on Wednesday (18 Feb) for our 2009 choir tee.
Die die must bring, don't care whether you beg, borrow, or ~~steal~~. :D

And photos from Saturday's warmups :D

Sopranos

Altos

Tenors

Basses

Marilyn and I sure had fun looking at you all that day :D
(And obviously many of you were trying to play to the camera right)

Christina :D

2009-02-05T20:56:00.003+08:00

Hello choir,

Please take note that there will be choir practice every Saturday from this week (7 Feb) onwards, from 8.30am to 11.30am (might drag if progress not up to expections). I know everyone will be saying how early it is or how it's hogging up your weekend, but in order to get our gold (or whatever it is that you all want), we have no choice to have additional compulsory practices.

It's not just us sacrificing our beautiful Saturday mornings (however beautiful it can get), Miss Yin, Miss Ng, Mr Loh and Miss Cheng will be with us also, so don't complain cos we can't hear them and we're not going to hear them. :D

Bring along all Kasar, White Horses and Cui Dong Cui scores and your pen/pencil (for notetaking)!
And come in proper school attire, not home clothes and slippers or else you'll get into trouble at the gate before you can even come and sing.
Please approach your section leaders if you have any inquiries (not complains).

Christina :D

2009-01-28T21:18:00.002+08:00

Hello people,

Due to the loud demands for updates by our fellow members, I shall come and nag about practices! ;D

Please be reminded that practice resumes this Friday, 3 - 6pm at the choir room!
Hope all of you recovered from the Chinese New Year gig already and are ready for SYF preparations.
Bring along your scores (Kasar, White Horses and Cui Dong Cui) and be on time if you have no valid excuse to absent yourself.
And hope that none of you really gorged on new year rubbish until you lost your voices!

P.S. Those who were not present for the rehearsal on Thursday afternoon to fill in your particulars, please come forward and update your particulars with me on Friday.
(Cos the committee needs it to track you all down one by one heh heh)

sheryl

2008-11-13T23:39:00.003+08:00

Hey choir! :D Concert was a blast, wasn't it?! Uploaded some pictures from the zillion my dad took (:

Love, Ashley! :D

We Sang Together; they Heard Us Sing. (yes I know, very cold.)

2008-11-13T23:15:00.006+08:00

Heyo, Ms Yin here. I realised I was typing similar messages to various students, so I thought I'd just put it here for everyone.

I received feedback and comments for today's concert - that the singing was off at certain places, the sound could be better, the chords weren't tight enough, and a buncha other stuff (They're all true by the way. Moving forward, let's aim to eradicate all possibility ever hearing a repeat of those comments and feedback ya?). But as I listened to them speak, I felt indignant and quite protective over you guys. Not because they are not valuable feedback, but because they did not see or hear you a month ago. Or even a week ago, and their judgement was made only based on absolute terms; on what they heard today. But when I heard you today, all I could feel was pride.

For the very fact that you were all on that stage together, singing your hearts out and following my conducting as closely as possible, and you didn't sound half bad. Particularly for the evening concert, I felt you actually sing the music, not the notes, as one choir, not as sections. It was a very moving scene. It's not often a conductor gets to watch his/her own choir performing, as an audience, and I was very glad I had this opportunity. Beauty and the Beast was really Beautyful, and not at all beastly. (Gaston, you made me laugh every. single. time. Beauty and Beast, it was really something sweet.) Seeing each and every one of you on that stage, hearing you sing the Beauty and the Beast theme song, it occurred to me how far you have all come as individual singers and as a choir in the last year (or for some, the last few weeks).

Girls, I must thank you for being ever so consistent and unwavering. You bring so much stability to the choir.

Guys, I must thank you for not giving up. You have improved a thousand percent, particularly in the last few weeks, and it is commendable. Please keep it up. And don't just grin in front of your computer screen and forget the words you've just read.

All in all, it's been a pleasure conducting you guys today. I'm looking forward to repeating this line again many more times to come.

See you all on Wednesday!

Cheers,
Ms Yin

2008-11-13T22:52:00.004+08:00

AUDITE NOS SONO ROCKED! :D

All our hard work and efforts have finally paid off, and I hope you people really enjoyed yourselves. So this is what we've been working for months and maybe even years, and we've finally got it!

Hope that this concert really sparked off your true love and passion for this choir and please come back to reality that SYF is just months away!

Will see you people on Wednesday, and please hand in all your ticket money also hahaha.
And someone left a bag full of things at the backstage so please claim it on Wednesday too.
And sec1s and newcomers please prepare to pay for your costumes, and everyone please pay for your necklaces and ties cos we owe Miss Yin alot of money okay.

We'll start working full force towards the SYF and attain the recognition we deserve (which is definitely possibly higher than gold ^^) so please continue your passion and enthusiasm!

Christina :D

hello choir

2008-11-10T21:23:00.002+08:00

heyys choir, sheryl here. how did u all find today's practice? personally, i rly felt that is was not bad. people, i rly rly believe that with miss yin leading us, with each of us putting in our all WE'RE GONNA ROCK THE STAGE.IT'S FOR REAL!!! we're gonna show them that the CCHMS choir aint one u can mess with!hahas. looked at how everyone laughed during practice? i juz ask for a little more attention, more focused everyone! and we'll have a blast for the concert and a well deserved fun bonding camp tgt. guys, we're so very close to our concert, let's juz give it our all ok? like what nat has said, when we have succeeded then when we look back at our sacrifices, they are all worthwhile. i know we've been practicing every day, long hours, very tiring,but heyy.we had fun didnt we? we achieved something.we didnt leave feeling lousy, we were all smiling, laughing, the only thing that was bothering was our grumbling tummies. people, let's work hard TOGETHER. AS A CHOIR.OK? LOVES LOVES LOVES
sheryl

2008-11-07T22:12:00.003+08:00

Hi, Nat here if you can still remember me :) Just some encouragement here, won't kill to listen :)

You guys have to make this concert a blast. The audience out there are paying to watch a Gold choir perform. You have to show off that Gold quality in this Choir, and you are gonna do it. This is a chance for you guys to bring up the whole Choir morale.

Concerts usually boost the morale, so give it your all, and then strive to earn that Gold for SYF 09. Yo, Gold is never an easy thing. The whole having-a-gold-for-syf trend in CCHMS Choir used up loads and loads of hardwork, sweat, tears, and sacrifices. You guys have the potential for Honours too okay. All it takes is hardwork, cooperation and really... sacrifice.

Sacrifice for this Choir, and be willing to give your all. This way, when you leave CCHMS you'll never forget this Choir. Because when you look back and see your sacrifices were paid off, that satisfaction in you will be so great it's indescribable.

The comm and you people have been improving tremendously and nothing should bring you guys down now, when concert is just 6 days away. Concerts and competitions have never been destinations for Choir. They are part of your journey in Choir here. So after this concert, anticipate for the SYF. Not "Phew it's over time to slack". It's "Next up, SYF 09. Gold!"

The Gold may be for the school, for the reputation blahblah. But ultimately, it's for you. The efforts you guys put in must be fully paid off, and duh you have to get the Gold then.

ALL THE BEST, CCHMS CHOIR! :) You guys have great potential. I want to see it on 13th Nov, and so will everybody else there :)

Ah feels so great to say all these again.... I miss you guys!

All are to attend unless specified or personally excused by Miss Ng or Mr Loh (not by your SLs). Your SLs will hold extra sectionals at other times and attendance is compulsory. Attendance will be marked for sectionals and Miss Ng can fail your attendance if you don't turn up without a valid reason.

Tuition classes, piano classes, or whatever other classes you have (as usual) are to be re-scheduled in order not to clash with choir practices. Do not expect the whole section or the whole choir to wait for you to catch up with the songs and preparation because you went missing (it's not like the whole choir went tuition with you).

As seen from the schedule we do not have much time left to our concert so please treat everything seriously. If you don't know your songs, ask your SLs or go learn it on your own.
We're not putting up a concert just for the sake of it. Everything that we've accumulated over this period will eventually be useful in the future (especially SYF next year).

And those who've not watched or heard Beauty and the Beast, please take the initiative to go and watch it or listen to it, so that our speed of learning can be doubled. (It's available on Youtube)

Also, I hope you've all prepared your songs for busking, it's coming soon!

Lastly good luck to all Sec 3 HCL students for our O Level paper!

Choir:

Please get yourselves into groups for busking after EOYs.

Submit your groups to your SLs by next Friday 3rd October 2008.

If your SLs do not receive your group arrangements by then, I will arrange you guys myself.

Each group should (preferably) not have more than 8 members maximum.

Arrange the pieces you wish to perform such that not everyone is singing the melody. E.g. Background singing, harmonizing, etc. But not EVERYONE sings the same thing.

If you don't know what to sing look for Ms Ng who will give you songs to sing.

&Lastly:
Good luck for EOYs ;D

2008-09-13T13:29:00.002+08:00

HEY CHOIR!

Yesterday was the first time since many months that we performed in front of a big audience isn't it? Don't matter who went out of tune, who didn't sing loud enough or who sang wrongly. At least we didn't have a major screw-up and we did okay(:

The next practice will be after our exams on marking day (10 Oct), from 10am to 1pm.

Please come back as we'll be commencing our intense preparations for our concert in November!

And we also need everyone's cooperation as we have a Beauty and the Beast medley (approx 9 minutes long) to learn on time. And who knows, we might need to learn choreography also (I don't know, we did choreo for Les Miserables last time also so maybe we did to for this also).

So good luck for your exams and keep your passion for choir burning!

heyys choir.sheryl here. i juz wanted to tell you all why i haven been attending choir. the whole tcr day was handled by the councillors, so we had to be there to oversee rehearsals and everything. please always know that my thoughts never left the choir, and i always come to the blog to check for tags, and i also talk to some of u to check out updates abt practices. choir, we've been stagnant too long. let's work harder together k? i know, some may think: choir's boring.no sense of satisfaction. but hey, why no sense of satisfaction.do u point at others? no ppl, we have been stagnant, nothing that outshone our previous results hence that feeling.people grow weary, tired of everything.HANG IN THERE PEOPLE, WE ARE THAT CLOSE TO OUR CONCERT. i know exams are coming, everybody is stressed up and busy mugging.but pls don forget u have to attend choir practices. don think u never turn up nobody knows, coz we're all keeping records. if at the end of the yr, your whole attendance is not even 75%, say bye bye to your cca points and all. i hope that coming to choir, isnt juz because u need a cca, u need your points.but rather for the passion, the drive to want to make good music and stay together. prove it to others that we are capable of achieving greater heights and to keep up to ms yin's expectations. we've been dreaming for too long, we've let ms yin shed lots of tears for us.it's time we get up on our feet and do some serious business.
NOTHING IS IMPOSSIBLE WITH THIS CHOIR/
regards,
sheryl
jia you for your exams kkz ppl.AND, TURN UP FOR PRACTICES AND UR EXTRA SECTIONALS DURING THE HOLIDAYS

2008-08-21T22:06:00.002+08:00

Choir, stop this childish nonsense on the choir's tagboard.
The tagboard is NOT to be misused in such a manner.
Settle your differences, as Nat said, instead of battling it out in such a childish manner while more sensible members of the choir attempt to stop this crap going on.
If anyone leaves irritating or offensive tags, leave them alone.
I will settle those tags personally.
