composition practice #1

This is my first practice to play my own composition without reading the notes. I made a lot of mistakes on every part, part A, B and C. I need to try to memorize it better and play it without making mistake. I also think to practice more with fingering on the left hands for part C.

Today, I continue writing feedbacks for my friends' composition and Mr.Herry checked our resources.

Daniel: too fast, no articulation.
Ghifi: good, need to fix some bars.
Ivan: have to add other notes and change the ending.
Jacklin: nice melody.
Johan: good but there's only one rhythm.
Michelle: good, a variation of notes.
Olivia: very nice melody, good to be listened.
Sarah: very good song.
Esther: good song but I think it's better if it's played a little bit slower.
Tatiana: have to add other notes and variation of rhythm and fix the ending.
Yoshiko: nice melody and make the tempo faster to make it better.
Yuli: good enough.

For instrument class, I practiced my composition. I did mistakes in part c. I need to practice more and try to memorize it for the rehearsal next week.

Today, I wrote a reflection for the assessment singing 'You've Got A Friend'. Then I watched the video of the video of the singing assessment. After that I performed my composition, I need to improve to play my part B and C better.
