Steel Drum Reflection
1. My emotions before the Concert were that I was very excited and energetic to play In front of a large audience for the second time. I was also happy due to me having fun a lot of fun with my friends before the concert started. My emotions during the concert were that I felt panicked due me being nervous to make a mistake while playing. I was also panicked due to me feeling like the audience was watching me (Only me) playing during the concert. After the concert I felt joy due to me being happy that my parents and family members were congratulating me on my stellar performance.
2. This Concert was different from the last concert due to the Ensemble not having/using …show more content…
I haven’t learned any life lessons by observing others. I haven’t learned any life lessons because I don’t like to spend my time on observing others. Instead I just hang out with my new friends and try to have as much fun as I can.
6. The hardest thing this term Musically wise was the Fluent reading quizzes. The Fluent reading quizzes were hard due to me not being able fast enough to finish a quiz under 45 seconds. I haven’t really grown from the quiz but I went from 2 minutes to about 1 minute within a few weeks of practice.
7. The two most memorable Musical moments for me were the Concerts and receiving help. The Concerts were memorable to me because they were the first time I’ve ever performed In front of a live audience. Receiving help was memorable because my teacher taught me how to play the Double Cello. Because, I faked playing all of our original songs until 2 weeks before our last concert not our previous concert.
8. The two most memorable Personal moments for me were making a lot of Friends. Another Personal moment was me playing at my first ever live Concert with an entire Ensemble of students that I eventually became friends with a lot of the …show more content…
What I’ve learned about myself as Musician Is that I’m a very slow learner at times. I also learned that I am sometimes not fast enough when It comes to music quizzes because I have to stop and think every few seconds In order to make sure I don’t make a mistake.
10. My strongest piece Is “Mele Kalikimaka”. Mele Kalikimaka Is my strongest piece because I had to learn the piece (With the help of peers). In order for me to teach the piece to my partner since he would always forget how to play the piece every time I asked him to run the piece.
11. My weakest piece Is “Gonna Fly Now”. Gonna Fly Now Is my weakest piece due me not really learning the piece and me messing around with my friends during class. But, I only know a few measures which really Isn’t that much since we have to play an estimate of 5 pages and I only know a few measures.
12. The grade I would give myself that truly reflects my Skill Level Is a B. My grade would be a B because I personally have a lot of skills now In playing and reading music. But, I am not professional at playing or learning music.
13. The grade I would give myself that truly reflects my Performance Level Is a B. I would give myself a B because my performance Is pretty well. What I mean Is that I smile more I also dance a little bit more just to ensure that the my overall performance Isn’t so boring when It comes to a live
