  1. Christian College ConcertFlinders, Chairo, Hillcrest By Nathanael Duffy Gr 4

  2. The Songs and Conductors The band was three schools joined together to create one big band. These schools were Chairo Christian School, Hillcrest Christian College along with our school. Our school conductor chose the songs; Skeleton Dance and Rolling in The Deep. The conductor from Cairo chose the songs; Pixar Movie Magic (which was an assortment of music pieces from Pixar movies) and Les Miserables which has at least five songs from the film. The last conductor chose the songs; A Knights Tale and The Song of the Blacksmith. I thought that the most difficult piece was The Song of the Blacksmith because at the end of it, there was a sign which was fff which means REALLY, REALLY LOUD in musical terms.

  3. The Aspect of Playing in a Band While playing in a band, I find that it is more enjoyable to play an instrument rather than watch in an audience as you find that hearing other instruments is easier. While playing in a band may be more fun, it can also be different for unexperienced players as you need to keep your timing in the song or you will get lost throughout the piece and might miss out an important part that you are required to play. Dynamics are also important (they are the louds and softs in music) by cause of the effect they add in pieces. These effects usually stop the audience getting bored of the item of music being played.

  4. Delicious Food At Hillcrest we got some small breaks in between our practice time and delicious food was supplied. These foods were an assortment of different fruits, things made out of pastry and other random stuff like wedges and chicken nuggets. I liked to have the chicken nuggets and wedges the best just because I thought they tasted good for no particular reason at all, but the fruit tasted pretty good too. I had to be careful not too eat to much so that I didn’t blow any of the food I ate into my clarinet.

  5. The Concert After the duration of about 10 hours over two days the band sounded really good because of all of the practice that we had done. The order that we played the songs in was first Skeleton Dance, Rolling in the Deep, Les Miserables, Pixar Movie Magic, then A Knights Tale and finally The Song of the Blacksmith. I think that overall, the most well played song was Pixar Movie Magic because the dynamics (mentioned in slide 3) were adequately played and I thought that the audience would’ve found it impressive because it was a long piece of music.

  6. A Friendly Community I think that participating in this band along with other schools was good for all of the students, as it showed a great opportunity to make some friends and improve our social skills. Making friends was the best part for me because I like to meet new people. For some reason I seem to be able to make music with others only if I knew who I was playing my instrument with. Next year, if we get another opportunity to go to Hillcrest, I will encourage others to come along to play in the band because it is a very enriching experience.
