Hello all my awesome band members!
Yes,we all know,we most probably will be playing KYRILL.
I have found this on youtube,not the recording,but it's okay!
Kindly "listen-and-fing" to this.
The following is what in the world is Kyrill.
---- KYRILL [Otto M. Schwarz]
Many people vividly remember 18January2007.
The weather service issued alerts of an impending "storm of the century".
A low-pressure front coming from Newfoundland had turned into a formidable hurricane.
The worst storms in decades were expected to reach early that afternoon.
Schools everywhere were closed and emergency services were put on high alert.
Despite this,the events which followed exceeded worst-case expectations} Deaths,injuries and rampant destruction throughout Europe.
Scores of people return home to find rubble where their homes had once stood.The forests were also hit hard.Massive trees were snapped like toothpicks.
Kyrill. A storm.
---
Doesnt it sound so horrible and evil and destructive?
So,since we are HORRIBLE AND EVIL enough already,I guess many of you like this piece!
Student Initiated Practice on MONDAY !
THINGS YOU SHOULD DO BEFORE MONDAY:
#1) Write bar numbers
#2) RHYTHM
#3) Write on your score with a pencil any parts you should take note of.
ALSO:
Starting from now, you are required to bring a PENCIL and your WATER BOTTLE everywhere you go.
You can bring along your jacket/windbreaker because its the rainy season and the music room is freezing at times.
OKAY, S.I. is from 8 to 1. Come and try out this interesting new piece together,and remember that Ive posed you all THE CHALLENGE. To play Kyrill for PARENTS NIGHT.
I'm sure you guys will chiongggg-ahhhhh ~ to prove it to yourself that YOU GUYS CAN DO IT.
You will definitely grow to realise that this song is really nicely pieced together!
Put in the effort,and you'll be rewarded.
:)
Cheers,
SiangYing.
