Progress & Reflection

First of all, we chose a topic and picked out genres and what instruments we are going to be using. After a fair amount of voting we have finally decided to narrow it down to 3 songs which are:

1. Hey Jude 
2. Superstition
3. Thriller

The performance will be held in the 4th of December.

Reflection on our performance

1. Hey Jude: I think we did pretty good, it was rather nerve-wracking than the practice so the singers as well as the harmonies weren't as loud but it went great!
2. Superstition: The audience enjoyed the performance, clearly shown by their enthusiasm as they shouted and clapped.
3. Thriller: There were some things that needed to be fixed but overall, it was a nice end to the performance. Although Thriller wasn't given much practice time as the other songs, we definetly managed it and I think it went so well!

Top 5 Ideas

• Battle of traditional and modern music

This is a very interesting one as it is very creative and unique unlike any other ideas I have ever heard before.

• Tribute to past singers

I think this is such as great ideas, as we are celebrating the songs that were created in the past. 

• Kolintang orchestra

Basically because this is the easiest option of all and because most of us know how to play the kolintang.  

• Disney songs

Because Disney has always the best songs and bringing back our childhood is always fun!

• Evolution of music

Lastly, I think this is a good idea because we can get an idea of how music has changed over the past decades.
