    Would I be shooting myself in the foot if I write about a snail for my creative?

    : / Write a childrens book one day with your idea. The allegorical message is not original, although I'm pretty sure the way in which you choose to express it is... just probably not quite up there for a year 12 piece.

    I Got Nominated For Encore!!! Yeewww

    Are you both Music 1 students?! My friend who is in Music 1 also got nominated. I have a feeling, yes, they were particularly impressed with one of your performances, as my friend said she really cant see herself getting full marks in all of hers... Does anyone know when Music 2 comes out...

    *how Did You Go?*

    I just did mine today. Two out of three pieces went perfectly. The last, I feel, was a little rushed. For some reason, I did not settle down towards the end, but seemed to cumulatively build up adrenalin after each piece. I must have looked like I suffered from Parkinsons by the end... But...

    Happy with your Compositions?

    Oh thanks guys!! - I used sibelius 5 to notate it. I'm really happy with how my scores look... good program. - Well, the recording you heard was performed live at St James cathedral, so you'll have to ask the professionals there. Otherwise, for the other two (a string quartet and piano solo)...

    Happy with your Compositions?

    That is what I was worried about... I've been hearing some nasty stories from some schools that will remain anonymous. So I've only uploaded the recording on myspace. I figure if anyone can transcribe every part of it before monday morning (they actually have to be sent off then...), then...

    Happy with your Compositions?

    OKAY! I also made a myspace for my compositions. Please see: www.myspace.com/jauntedjingling I've only uploaded my tango. Its for my core composition in Music 2. Unfortunately the recording isnt perfect... but it is energetic, at least... It actually sounds (due to the performers missing...

    HSC 2008 music performance pieces

    To Sparks: I've been speaking to a lady who wrote the current syllabus and she maintains that you can still get 100% even if you use music. Memorisation is not at all essential, and is preferable if you think you might make some silly mistakes due to your memory faulting... well thats the idea...

    Compositions

    Oh dear! Composers are a dying breed. But I'm here! So... I'm doing three, one for core Mus 2 and two for Extension. They are as follows: Core: Tango for trio (Clarinet, Cello, Piano) Ext: String Quartet (very Sculthorpe... but somehow i managed to make it sound oriental - i have a massive...

    Best piano pieces for 8th grade/Associate level.

    Agreed! Au Lac de Wallenstadt is beautiful and I believe its AMus. Not hard, I didnt think. Also! Au Bord d'une Source (by the way, these are both from the first year) is an LMus (if youre ready to tackle it). Its much more fun to play. And just a little bit impressive, too. Good luck with it all.

    I got into the Con!

    Would someone be so kind as to explain... with your audition - did you have to perform the set works that they indicate on the website (i.e. for piano, majoring in Performance, you need to play about 6 pieces such as a Prelude and Fugue, an entire sonata etc etc)? Because that would be an...

    Chemistry Assignment... Help!

    Heya. I have this first hand investigation to do where we measure the reaction time of Bicarb Soda in Vinegar at different concentrations. I've had a few test runs with it, and I'm finding that when I put, for example, 10ml of vinegar with 90ml of water and add half a tsp of bicarb, it takes...
