Tang Xiao Ping will be teaching basics to strengthen our foundation. he will be teaching as a whole section but will also be teaching individually to cater to each needs. There will be around 2 sectionals each week. i will update everyone through here when the sectional timing is confirmed.
And please practice your pieces during your own timing so during the sectional, tang laoshi will not have to waste his time teaching the rhythm all that.

If you all know, there will be a concert during December. And our section has only 4 or 5 players who come for practice frequently. And now Dr Goh says that those who din come for the previous practice, can no need to come to the consecutive practice and will not be able to join the concert. And there's no need to ask timothy, me or Dr goh whether you can perform or not. If you still want to perform, you have to go for practice on Monday and other consecutive practices.

NO excuses for those who are having FYP or attachment not to come for band practice unless you already intend not to perform for the concert. If you are working during your holidays, you can still come after your work. Dun tell me you are tired, cuz those ppl who are working and still wants to perform will still try their best to make it for the practices.
