Term 2 of Grade 10 D

20 September 2010

Today is the first day of term 2. First of all, today Mr. Herry introduce about the up coming assessments that we will have to do it in this term 2. After that, Mr. Herry tell us by reading it out loud in front of the class about our score for the Music Developmental Workbook that we did in term 1. Then we discuss about the first assessment, which is due next Tuesday that is singing in-group. We’re discussing about how many members should be in a group, who are the members and things like that. After awhile, all of us agree that in one group will consist of 6 members and my group members are Shanika Indira (the group leader), Saskia, me, Ju Yeop Lee, Min Soo and Jeffrey Pribadi. At last before going to the instrument class, Mr. Herry tell us to write about our homework which is completing the major 7^th and dominant 7^th from C – B.

Piano Class

Today is the first day in term 2 of having the piano class again. I’m not the first one who got the chance to play the piano. Today I play the major 7^th and dominant 7^th from C – B. First of all, I’m doing it going upward from C – B and I feel that it’s not really hard. Then Mr. Herry ask me to do it downward from B – C and I feel that’s hard for me to do it. I think I still need more practice for next especially the downward from B – C.

21 September 2010

Today is the second time of having music class in term 2. First of all, Mr. Herry us ask to check our uniform. Many of us didn’t really wear the proper uniform like what Mr. Herry expected us to be like our tie, it should be tied properly so it makes us looks in a good appearance. Only for today the checking of uniform took a lot of time. After that, Mr. Herry begin to check our attendance and our resources. Then, Mr. Herry give us the time to study about the major 7^th and dominant 7^th for about 5 minutes while he’s taking the quiz paper in the photocopy room. As he arrived in the music room, all of us have to close our notes and start doing the quiz for about 15 minutes. After that, we check our friends quiz paper and I make 2 mistakes in that quiz. At last, Mr. Herry tell us to go the instrument class.

Piano Class

Today is the 2^nd time of having the piano class. As well as yesterday, I’m not the first one who got the chance to play the piano. Today I play the major 7^th and dominant 7^th from C – B again. But today I only play it in upward and not downward because of the limited time that we have. So, for next time, I’ll make sure that I practice more and do it well.

This is the first video of my-self playing the piano that I recorded in term 2. In this video, I’m playing the major 7^th and dominant 7^th from C –B in both way, upward and also downward. I think I’m doing well enough in going upward but in going downward I got a little bit of stuck where I was stop playing the in middle to think first and continue to play again. Although I have practice it, I still feel that going downward is a little bit hard for me.

27 September 2010

Today is the third time of having music class in term 2. First of all, Mr. Herry check our uniform and I’m wearing my tie properly because I don’t want Mr. Herry to tell me about it again like the other day before. After done with checking our uniform, Mr. Herry check our attendance and also our resources. Then Mr. Herry give us time to practice the group singing assessment that will due on next Monday. After some time practicing, Mr. Herry ask us to do the rehearsal of the group singing assessment and my group is the third one to perform. I and my group is singing I Gotta Feeling – Black Eyed Peas and the result of it is not good at all because we haven’t really prepare and not really sure yet about the song that we will be singing in the assessment. At last, Mr. Herry tell us to go to the instrument class.

Piano Class

Today is the 3^rd time of having the piano class. I’m got the second chance to play the piano. Today I play the major 7^th inversion in both ways, upward and downward from C – D only. This is due to the reason that the time of this class is limited and I’m not really good at it yet so need time to complete the task that Mr. Herry ask me to play. I need to practice more and next time, Mr. Herry ask me to play it from C – B.

28 September 2010

Today is the fourth time of having music class in term 2. First of all, Mr. Herry check our attendance and then we immediately start the notation test. The test is all about the major 7^th, dominant 7^th and the inversion the major 7^th. We spent about one session to complete this test but actually we only have half an hour to do this written test. After we done doing the test, in the last page of that test paper there are reflection that we need to fill it too and it’s about our reflection of the test itself. Just after I submitted the paper, I heard that my friends that one of them is Bb major and it’s different from B major. I just notice about it that time and surely I make mistakes in that question. Next time, I have to read the question clearly and before we to go to the instrument class, Mr. Herry reminded us about the singing group assessment on the 4^th October 2010.

Piano Class

Today is the 4^th time of having the piano class. Today, I’m lucky number one who got the chance to play the piano. I play the major 7^th inversion from C – B in both ways, upward and downward. I still need a lot of practice because I still stuck in the middle of it and I make common mistakes in the finger number. Mr. Herry reminded me to practice it well, record the video of it and uploaded it my blog.

This is the second video of my-self playing the piano that I have recorded in term 2. In this video, I’m playing the major 7^th inversion from C – B in both way, upward and downward. I still make mistakes and got stuck in the middle when I’m playing it. So, I will practice more in it and hopefully, in the next video I’m doing it better and not stop while I’m playing it.

This is the third video of my-self playing the piano that I have recorded in term 2. In this video, I’m playing the same thing like before that is the major 7^th inversion from C – B in both ways, upward and downward. The difference between this video and the last video is that in this video, I’m playing it better because I have practice it before I recorded this video. Although it’s not perfect without mistakes, I think that I’ve play better in this video.

4 October 2010

Today is the 5^th time of having music class in term 2. First of all, Mr. Herry check our uniform and our appearance especially about our tie and hair. After that, we discuss about the singing assessment that should be done today. We ask Mr. Herry kindness to make it tomorrow and Mr. Herry agree. So, the singing assessment is due tomorrow. Almost all of the groups haven’t ready to perform yet for today, we still need a little bit more time to practice. Therefore, with the kindness from Mr. Herry we will do the singing assessment tomorrow and today we have another chance to do the last rehearsal or we can just say it as a practice. Before doing the rehearsal, we do the warming up with Mr. Herry because Mr. Harry wasn’t there to help us doing these warming up. After that, we start with the rehearsal. The first group that is Ann’s group singing Just The Way You Are – Bruno Mars, then continue with the second group that is Jeffrey Koby’s group singing No Such Thing – John Mayer, the next group which is my group singing True Colors – Glee Version and the last group that is Ivan’s group singing Bad Day – David Powter.

Today we don’t have instrument class because we use all the time to do the preparation for the singing assessment.

5 October 2010

Today is the 6^th time of having music class in term 2. First of all, Mr. Herry give us time around 5 – 10 minutes to change our clothes or to prepare our self before starting with the singing assessment in-group. My group doesn’t change the clothes; we just wear our school uniform so we use this time to practice. After that, Mr. Herry ask us to choose either staying inside the classroom to watch the other groups performance or stay outside the class to practice. We agree to stay outside and practice for the last time. My group is the 3^rd group so we still have time to practice, while practicing we use that time very wisely by taking this last practice very seriously. It comes to be our turn to perform; the first group (Ann’s group) and the second group (Jeffrey Koby’s group) have done their performance. Therefore they stay inside the classroom and become our audience. My group performance is singing the True Colors – Glee Version using the minus one of it and also one of my group member (Ju Yeop Lee) play the guitar of this song. I think the result of this singing performance is good enough and we have done it as the best that we can do. The comments from the teachers are we need to be more confident and wear a better costume that suits with the song for next time. After done with the singing assessment, Mr. Herry give us the reflection paper of this assessment. While we are writing the reflection, Mr. Herry show us everybody performance that have been recorded as a video using the camera. We are enjoying looking at the videos and Mr. Herry said that he would put it on YouTube later on.

Today we don’t have any instrument class again. We have spent all the time to do the singing assessment and due to this reason, we got no time left for the instrument class.

This is the fourth video of my-self that I have recorded in term 2. In this video, I’m practicing for the group singing assessment and the song is True Colors – Glee Version. I use the music that has the singing version because I’ve not confident enough to sing it by myself. I’m singing only until the first verse and the first refrain. I still need the music that has the singing because sometimes I’m still late to start singing the song.

This is the fifth video of my-self that I have recorded in term 2. In this video, I’m still doing the same thing that is practicing for the group singing assessment and the song is True Colors – Glee Version. I’m using the music that has the singing version of it again because I’m still confused on how to sing this verse that is the verse 2. I need the help of the singing version to guide me in singing this verse 2 especially in the middle part of it. In this video, I’m singing from the verse 2 until the second refrain that is just after the verse 2.

I think I’m doing it well enough because it’s not really hard for me.

This is the seventh video of my-self playing the piano that I have recorded in term 2. In this video, I’m playing the left-hand chord accompaniment again that I’ve written it down in my music notebook. After I finish playing with this one hand of chord accompaniment, I stop for a moment and then continue with playing the chord accompaniment with the melody for the right hand.

Hopefully, in the next video I can do it better.

This is the 19^th video of my-self playing the piano that I have recorded in term 2. In this video, I’m playing my own melody composition again and again. In playing the melody, finally I’m not making any serious mistakes and I think if I compare my playing of the melody to all the others video this is the best. For the coda part, I also have done it well enough.

Today is the 21^th time of having music class in term 2 and this is the last reflection that I have to write for this term. First of all, Mr. Herry check our attendance and our resources. After that, Mr. Herry give us time to do the warming up in instrument room before the assessment of playing our own melody composition start. After about 15 minutes, everybody gather in the music room again.

The first is from the piano group. Emily is the first one, she’s playing it very good and although she remember the song but still make a little bit mistakes. Second is Tiara, she played good enough but still need more time to practice. Saskia is the third, I like the song and actually she remembered the song but she’s not confident enough if she didn’t read the notes. Fourth is Victoria, she played well dong, the song is nice but she still reading the notes. I’m the fifth, I’ve tried my best to do this assessment. I’m too nervous and therefore I make a little bit mistakes while playing the song. The last from piano is Yovita, it’s a nice song but sometimes the tempo is faster than the other part of the song.

Move on to the violin group. The first one is Dwi, I think he need more practice to make it better next time. Frederik is the second, he played very good although he said that he’s nervous. The third is Juan, nice performance but he makes a little bit mistakes while playing the song. Marco is the fourth, he played random song on the spot that was accompanied by Mr. Sadrakh. The fifth is Marcus, he played well done. Ais is the last from violin, he played well but the end of the song is like not yet finished and he got comment/feedback from the teachers.

Next is from the woodwind group. The first one is Caleb, even though he only practice a little but he have tried his best to do the assessment. I think he needs to practice more to make it better. Brian is the second, it’s a nice song and he’s lucky because Mr. Tommy got to see his performance although it’s only for a short time. The third is Ivan, nice performance, the song is awesome and he remembered his song. Jeffrey Pribadi is the fourth, he played well. Min Soo should be the fourth but he doesn’t bring his instrument. The last one from woodwind group is Wahyu, the instrument sound is not that loud and I think he needs more practice.

The last is from the guitar group. The first one is Ann, she got time to practice first in front of the class before she do the assessment. Mr. John accompanied her using the guitar and Mr. Harry accompanied her using the organ. I think she still need more practice and her song is mostly repetition of the same notes. Harsya is the second, he also accompanied by those two teachers. I think he needs more practice and he makes some mistakes in playing the song. The third is Jeffrey Koby then continue with Raymond and the last is Shanika Indira.

Due to the limited time so before the guitar people able to finish their assessment, it’s time for us to have break. Mr. Herry told us that the one who have done the assessment can leave and the one who haven’t done it have to stay in the music room. Therefore I choose to have my break and leave the music room and that’s why I didn’t make the self-comment on the last three performance of the assessment.

This is the last reflection for term 2.
