3:52 PM Dear singers! Let me give you an update on what's currently going on in A Cappella!
Alrighty, the recent most upcoming performance is the Lasalle A Cappella Concert.
Due to the upcoming exams and YOG, I've managed to persuade the coordinators to have the concert after the exam week (2nd week of Sept).
Which means it'll be in end Sept around 3rd/4th Weekend (17th-19th or 24th-26th).
Those confirmed singing in the concert, please keep those days free.
Keep your Wed and Thurs free for practices as well.
Next, for our song selection, Joe has emphasized on wanting every song to be directed towards a rock/live concert feel.
That means, we will start doing live versions of songs rather than the album version.
The difference is that everything is modified to arouse the crowd, from what they see to what they hear.
Thus, stage presence is a very important factor.
If say, you're the lead for this song, or you want to train for the lead, you have to search for the live versions of the song on YouTube and observe how the lead presents him/herself on stage, same for the backup singers.
Songs that we have been adopting live versions of are:
- My love - Justin Timberlake version: Futuresex loveshow http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rvZplHNjgqI
- Cry me a river - Justin Timberlake Version: Futuresex loveshow http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=21DVHYHrHPM
- No One - Alicia Keys Version: Grammy's award + AOL http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Djl9DnIb0nk (Grammy's) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Djl9DnIb0nk (AOL)
Here's also the structure of practices on Wednesdays and Thursdays (if you're confused). :)
Wednesday practices (Studio, blk71, 6:30pm)
All juniors to come and learn up old/experiment with new songs and get ready for future performances.
Feel free to suggest new songs.
Please inform me if you cannot make it forpractices with a valid reason.
Be on time for Thursday practices (Studio, blk71, 6:30pm)
This is extra practices especially for the upcoming concert.
Only the groups confirmed singing in the concert must come for this important practice.
If you want to try out songs to be part of the concert, please learn up and try them on Wed. :)
Love ,
Cheryl
