salutations!(haha surenna) Well, this past week i have been possibly the most intense bass player in chelmsford. That is because of jr.districts! A few months ago i auditioned, with three scales and a wicked hard song. However, i did not get in. Then a month later after all the better people got the pieces someone dropped out and i got in! Yeah so heres how i translated what they were like at first they said your not good enuff so we dont want u Then they said never mind we do want u here is the songs, and even tho ur not as good as the others u need 2 get as good as them in less time. So I learned 4 songs on my own in 20 days. We had two practices both for five hours, and my feet died. Then we had a concert at 3 pm, but we were practicing since 8 a.m. the conducter had 3 songs from operas and we made up stories. Here they are.
Overture to nabucco(pronounced nabuucoo but we called him nabucko) its about a king with slaves and they rebel and there is war and they win! take that nabucko!!
Intermezzo Sinfonico- its a love triangle And the start is all lovey, then someone is sad because the know they don't have a chance and they are crying
Bachanale- This is what they called wild parties in the old days. It is from samson and delilah. They are from opposite political families, and they tell delilah she'll get big $ if she gets his secrets. Then there in sensual dancing and seduction.
Oh and we played bad romance using solfege but only at rehearsel. our last song was a march! Anyway, now i have no feeling in my feet from standing so long, and yah so bye!
hahahahahaha hannah! Take that nubucko! lolx10!!!!
ReplyDeleteYou poor thing - you worked so hard. But I don't feel sorry for you because you were terrific and the whole orchestra was terrific and I wish I'd been involved in something so special when I was your age.
ReplyDeleteOne tip- always wear comfortable shoes!
It was a wonderful opportunity for you and you certainly rose to the occasion. Congratulations!
Liked the plot summaries. Keep it up.
