April 13, 2010.

Today, we had our singing assessment. We sing the song "I Got Rhythm". Unlike the other singing assessments in the previous terms, in this term, our singing assessment is done individually and not paired like the previous ones. Meaning, that instead of doing a duet, this time, it was a solo. Once the announcement was made, panic roamed around the classroom and was displayed in most of my peers' faces. However, I was not one of them because I think that I'd be able to do this song well. We have had several practises before on the previous sessions and I've gotten to know the song pretty well, and thus I believe that I'd be able to perform the song well, and I did. Everything was in tune and I used gestures, and in the end, I got one of the highest scores in my class for it. Next time though, I'm going to make sure that I get the highest score and not just one of the highest scores in my class.
Below is my practise video. In this video, I'm playing the scales a third apart, legato, hands together one octave apart for four octaves in the key of C, D, E, F#, Bb, Ab major and harmonic minor scales. As you can see, it's still not perfect and I still have to practise some more in order to make it perfect. I think I also need to play it faster.
