Hi choir these are the important notices you need to take note of.
- Alterations of choir uniforms will be on 26 of Feb (i.e next Friday). Seniors please wear your shoes and check the lengths of your uniforms this weekend. The correct length of your uniforms should be just high enough to see the tip of your court shoes but not your any part of your feet. IMPORTANT SO PLEASE CHECK!!! Those who have grown laterally or horizontally and need to make a new uniforms please tell either Clara or Celeste.
- PHOTOCOPY OF PASSPORT IN BY NEXT WEEK! With it include your medical history, food allergies, next of kin's name and contact number. For those whose passports are expiring this year, quickly go make a new passport during the March holidays or else you will not be able to travel out of the country.
- Jubilate tickets ($70) please give it to the teachers ASAP, latest 12 March. All the money has to be in BEFORE the March holidays.
For the Sec 1s who did not hear what we said about the shoes, we are going to tell you here. As the tailor will be coming next friday you need to get your shoes by FRIDAY so that we can make the uniform of the correct length.
The shoes must be-
- must be PURE WHITE
- Covered
- No embelishments (no ribbions, beads, lace, prints, etc...)
- tip must be ROUNDED. no pointed tips allowed.
- No Flats
- Heels 1 inch-2 inches high. minimum height 1 inch.
A good example will be this
Some suggestions for places you can buy the shoes from. The shoe shops in Far East, AMK jubilee, or those small little heartland shops near Toa Payoh hub or Kovan.
We've also found a video on youtube of Butterfly sung by another choir, please go see it and get an idea what we should sound like and how butterflies actually behave. Go to this link http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9gpRmcaT84E. Listen and see how the song follows through and the imagery we are supposed to create. Please also listen to kekatu to get a feel of the song when it comes together: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1LoVpwcsyaw. For both songs take note of proununciation, rhythm, speed, pulse, dynamics and colour and the chordings between all sections as a whole.
Have a good weekend and Happy Chinese New Year!
