I know that there's lots of things you all have to practise on recently. But i just hope you all can put in your efforts in practising because we have not been having practices for a week or so. Now, you all have to be responsible for yourself and be disciplined. If not, by the time you come back, you will have a hard time getting back your embrochure, breath support etc. Therefore, i hope you all can do your part by practising. I know you all can do it, so put in effort alright! No pain, no gain. :D
