Practice #8
This is my eighth practice for this term. In this video, I was trying to practice the first three parts of my song. I tried to practice from the beginning of the song until the end of the C part of the song. I think, this practice is still really bad because there were still a lot of notes which were off pitch and I sometimes still hesitated about the notes when I played. So, I will try to do a lot more practices to prepare me for the assessment. I will also try to practice the next part of the song.
Practice #7
This is my seventh practice for term 2. In this video, I was still practicing the third part, or the C part f my composition. I decided to practice the same part again because I think, I didn't do well in the last practice. In this practice, I still hadn't done well because there were still some off pitch notes. So, I will need to do more practices in order to be able to play better and proceed to the next part of my song.
Practice #6
This is my sixth practice in term 2. In this video, I still concentrated on my composition because I will have to play it on my practical assessment later on. In this video, I was practicing the third part, or the C part of my composition. I think, I did not do well in this practice because as usual, I played some off pitched notes which were not good to be heard. So, I will have to do more practices on this part again, and also on the other parts of my song again.
Practice #5
This is my fifth practice for this term. In this video, I was practicing the first part and also the second part of my composition. I think, I did okay in this practice, but there were still some notes which were off pitch. I think, that's the problem that I've always had so far. Until today, every time I practice, there are still off pitched notes. Therefore, I will have to do more practices and try not to play off pitch notes again because the assessment is coming soon.

Theory :
Today, we first watched our friends did their rehearsal in front of the class. There were only 3 people who did their rehearsal today. Our teacher also gave us the MDW for this term and we need to finish it on Wednesday. After this, I'm going to do my MDW and also print the screenshots from my blog.
Practical :
Today, we practiced to play G major scale with violin. We played 2 octave scales with some variations to prepare us for the upcoming practical assessment which will be on December 7, 2011. Our music theory teacher asked us to practice to play any major or minor scales with our instrument. After this, I will try to practice the scales and also my own composition again.

Theory :
Today, we first watched some of our friends rehearsing in front of the class, and we also reviewed about relative major-minor key, enharmonic keys, natural minor scale and its history, harmonic minor scale, and also melodic minor scale. We also got exercise from our teacher which we need to do as our homework. I think, the lesson today was not very hard because the teacher explained clearly. After this, I'm going to do my homework and practice my composition.
Practical :
Today, we practiced "Etude" again, but we tried to play it faster. We also asked our teacher to try playing the next song because we want to try to play it at home. After this, I'm going to continue practicing this song and also my composition.

Theory :
Today, we first learned about minor chord progression. We also learned the difference between minor natural and minor harmonic. After that, we learned to make our own composition with the chords given. Then, we watched one of our friends doing her rehearsal in front of the class. I think, the lesson today was okay, but still kind of hard because I honestly don't really understand about minor chords and I'm not really good at making compositions. After this, I'm going to practice more for my practical assessment.
Practical :
Today, we practiced to play a song from Suzuki violin book vol.1. I played a song titled "Etude". I think, the song was not very hard because it was not the first time for me to play it. I also learned to play the variation of the song. After this, I'm going to continue practicing my composition and also the songs from Suzuki book.

Theory :
Today, we had our rehearsal in front of the class. For each instrument group, 2 people had to rehearse as the representatives of the class. I also got my turn to perform, and I think I did okay, but not really good. There were still many off pitch notes which I need to work on. So, I'm going to practice again so I can play better next time.
Practical :
Today, we practiced to play our own composition for the upcoming practical assessment. Mr. Sadrakh also checked our compositions and the chords again. I also practiced my own composition once beause there was not enough time for me to practice again.

Theory :
Today, we first reviewed on chord progression which we learned last week. After that, we had to compose 8 bar composition with the chords given by Mr. Herry. I think, the lesson today was not very hard and Mr. Herry told me that there was just 1 mistake on my composition. After this, I'm going to practice my own composition again to prepare me for the upcoming practical assessment.
Practical :
Today, my friend and I learned to play two of the songs from Suzuki Violin Book Vol.1. We learned to play a song titled Minuet 1 composed by J.S Bach, and also Minuet 2 which was also composed by the same person. Honestly, the songs were kind of hard, especially when I had to play faster. So, I will probably try to learn and practice playing those songs again so I can play them more fluently.

Theory :
Today, I first wrote my reflection on te composition that I mad. Then, I learned about chord progression. For me, it's actually a bit hard cause I don't really understand it. So, I'll probably try to research about it so I can understand better. After this, I'm going to do a bit research on chord progression, and I'll also continue practicing my composition.
Practical :
Today, my instrument teacher was absent, so my friends and I had to practice independently. I practiced my own omposition, and I think I have improved a little bit compared to the previous practices. I also have memorized my song completely.

Practice #4
This is my fourth practice for this term. In the previous video, I practiced both the first and the second part of my composition, and I think I didn't do it very well. There were some off pitch notes. So, I decided to keep on practicing those parts again. In this video, I was practicing part A and part A' of my song. Compared to the last practice, I think I have improved my performance and I think I did good in this video. After this, I'm going to continue practicing my composition again to prepare me for the next practical assessment.

Practice #3
In the previous video, I was practicing my second part of my song, and I think I did okay. So, this video which shows my next practice is the video when I practiced both the first and second part of my song. I lhink I still did bad in this video, and there were still many notes which were off pitch. Therefore, I'll still practice these two parts and try to improve my performance.
Practice #2
This is my secpmd practice for this term. In the previous video, I practiced the A part or the first part of my music composition. In this video, I was practicing the second part or the A' part of my composition. The A' part of my composition is similar with the A part, the only difference is on the ending part. So, it wasn't hard to learn the A' part of my composition. I think I did okay iin this practice. So, I will probably try to practice both the first and the seecond part of my composition again so I can play it more fluently.
Practice #1
This is my first practice in term 2. In this video, I was practicing one part of my 32 bars composition. I was actually practicing the A part, or the first part of my composition. Since it is my first practice, I still made a lot of mistakes. Therefore, I'm going to continue practicing this part first, until I'm good at it.

Theory :
Today, we discussed the resut of the survey that we made. We shared what each of us found from our surveys. Overall, we found out that people like music because music can affect people's mood and can entertain them. We were also taught on how to use the Finale software because there are some new students in our class who didn't know how to use it.
Practical :
As usual, I didn't do much in practical class. I just practiced our own compositions. After this, I'm going to keep practicing at home so I can play better.

Theory :
Today, we focused on our music compositionn for this semester. We learned on how to expand our previous 16 bars composition into 32 bars composition. There were 2 ways to expand it, but I prefer to add more notes than the other way. After that,, we had to try to expand our own composition. It was a bit hard, honestly. After that, Mr. Herry checked it and according to him, my composition was okay. After this, I am going to practice my composition.
Practical :
In the music instrument class, me and my friends practiced independently because our instrument teacher was absent. I practiced to play my own composition and tried to check if I needed to change something with my composition that I made.
