Good Job people!!

Right and we're back.

Chamber concert's over and it was a job well done on everybody's part, especially Zenn and John! Kudos to the entire quartet for the great chemistry and co-operation.

Upcoming events:-

1) reading through Mozart's String Quintets with Mr. Sze. My my we really are addicted to Mozart aren't we? especially his quintets. Remember to photocopy the scores and practice your parts.

2) RISE-RV combined concert! Two members of our quartet - Myself and Ryan will be playing for all three combined pieces, which is great. (Not that the pieces are exceptionally hard, though). Still, practice and sing!!

So that's it for now i suppose.
tkwek.

Rehearsal

DEAR HemiDemiSemiQuavers,

how to get to Carnegie? Practice Practice Practice?
Wrong. We've already been there...

anyway. rehearsal. this friday. from o+n+e one to t+w+o+t+h+i+r+t+y two thirty. there goes. found scores for clarinet quintet. practice without zenn first. will contact zenn tomorrow

good night.

Friday Rehearsal

I hereby inform everyone with membership in the hemi-semi-demi-quaver quartet assosciation that there is a tentative Friday Rehearsal. For the benefit of less intellectual beings, the word tentative means "unconfirmed but highly possible".

I seek permission from Acting Chairman Theophilus to confirm reherasal that our quartet might soar to greater heights with Mozart's Clarinet Quintet.

In case you do not know, a clarinet quintet needs a CLARINETIST. Therefore, Zenn has agreed to render his services but unfortunately messenger Jonathan Shin has yet to come back with the score for the quintet..

Please, Theophilus, get all necessary details sorted out. All the more so as you are heading next year's Malaysian Montage ADMIN section and have roped me in without asking me.

Yours more faithfully than ever ,

John

Fridau Rehearsal

I might not be able to make it as I'm supposed to practice Shawn's chopin piano concerto part (I have to play for arts@gallery with him) and that is quite soon.

Thing is: He wants to practice on friday same time slot as well. So, either i cancel or shift, or miss this rehearsal (which I can't).

I'll call Shawn.

Tomorrow.

Sorry for wasting blog space.

Right.

Haha.

Oh yes guys hope you like the name..

Right, that's it for now..

P.S. I won't be blogging for some time till my exams are over because i have to go into *ultra-mugging-mode* therefore do not expect anything to come soon.
Furthermore my cello exam is TOMORROW and I'm feeling faint.. !scales!
Pray for me!

Thanks!

Practice this friday

Dear HEmiDEmiSEmiQUavers,

Any objection to quartet rehearsal this friday, the day of our Arts@Atruim, at our normal time from 1 pm to 3 pm?

things to be done:
-contact Zenn Chua: if he can't make it, we can always read through ourselves first. and i think we should just practice by ourselves this friday cos it isn't very nice if we invite him over and hey, some people are sightreading and others are faking. (Ahem)
-Obtain scores - we can't practice the blank music stand right??

that's all folks
tkwek

Our new name!!

This is the formal announcement of our quartet name

It has been changed to: (round of applause please) HEMIDEMISEMIQUAVERS. in case you didn't know, that's half of half of half of half of a crotchet... which is one count, by the way.

Our blog name shall remain as Quartet Fantasia, but the URL and the name that we shall be known by will be HEMIDEMISEMIQUAVERS.

tkwek, 1st violin
