CORE = Wanted - Vannessa Carlton
OR
Ender - Finch (guitar)

Music in Religion = Amazing Grace with choir backup..


so yeah im doing all performances...

what you guys doing??

 

[jessica_morriso]

i think you need to brance out a little try some different stuff rather then the same stuff every one will be doing like delta and Vannessa Carlton the markers will be sick to death of that stuff

 

[bitchymcbitch]

yeah ive changed that since then..

currently -

Music 20th and 21st Century - Michelle Branch - ( either ) 'Breathe' or 'Are you Happy Now?'

Rock - Kelly Clarkson - 'Low'

Popular - something by delta...

and i have no idea about my core.. probably 'My Immortal ' - Evanescence

or for completly different - The Places You Have Come to Fear The Most - Dashboard Confessional

 

[serenesorrow]

So far I only know for certain I'm doing

Testament - The Haunting

On electric guitar.

 

[KevinCooper]

lets see....

instrument and its repertoire: classical guitar: 'Fernando Sor's Theme and Variations on Mozarts Magic Flute Opus 9'

Classical Period: i'm thinking about 'Choro Da Mahna' by Slozburg

Australian Music: Phillip Haughtons 'Web'

Rock/Jazz: 'Closing In' by The Living End (great piece)

i think i've got a good mix of songs, i'm not a big fan of Australian 'Art' Music but Web is pretty cool, and it'd get me more marks than churning out 'Thunderstruck'

i've picked pieces that i'll not only enjoy playing, but the examiners will enjoy listening (trying to get a place at encore) and they are all very technical, just how i like it haha

 

[the sax man]

Saxamaphone.....
Yea, Im not sure which'll be under what, but there'll be Jazz, Instrument + repetoire, Popular music, and obviously the core.

Ummm......

1.Joy Springs - Clifford Brown
or
Spain - Chick Corea
2.Green Dolphin Street - ?
or
Any other jazz standard
3.My one and only Love - ?
or
The Road to You - Pat Metheny
4.Wisdom - Yellowjackets

[bitchymcbitch]

^^ nice choice. michelle branch is an amazing artist.

Eva Cassidy rocks! Have you heard 'Fields of Gold'?

what are your topics?

 

[scunny_mortenson]

So far i've chosen....

1) Closing In - The Living End
2) The Lemon Song - Led Zepplin

Please don't accuse me of stealing your song KevinCooper Closing In was the first song I chose back in December 2003 and I agree with you it is a "great peice". Best of Luck with it.

I'm still deciding on another two songs but i might also do a composition - I better hurry up and decide though because performance time will roll around very quickly.

[AsyLum]
