Today in practical music class we saw a couple of Jazz player in the video. We saw Chic Corea and Bobby McFerrin play the song autumn leaves. I thought their performance was very great! Chic Corea played beautifully on the piano and Bobby McFerrin's voice is wonderful and his imporvisation is very good and fluent! In practical class, as usual we practiced playing Fly me to the Moon.

Today in music class we had a solo singing assessment. We had to sing by ourself in front of the class. For the solo singing assessment i sang the song "Fly me to the Moon". At first i was really nervous singing in front of the class but i tried my best and finally did it. I think i didn't do so bad but i could've tried harder to improve my singing. I also enjoyed my classmates sing their song.

Today in music class we had a written test about major scale, minor scale and jazz music. I found the written test quite hard even though i have studied at home, but i tried my best to do the test. Some of the jazz questions given in the test was hard because i never learn about it before. Overall, i think i did okay on my music written test. I hope i can achieve a good and satisfiying score.

Today i wrote another five question i know about Jazz and actually answer them. After writing these questions we had an "Ask & Answer" session in front of class. By having an "Ask & Answer" session i have learnt something new about Jazz. We also have to submit our individual report about jazz. In practical class today i played fly me to the moon with walking bass. At first i found walking bass was quite hard but i kept practicing and i finally can do it.

Today in music class we were told to make a 15 page report about jazz. I made an outline for my individual report about jazz. This outline will make it more easier for the to do the report. Today in practical class I was given the notes to the song 'Fly me to the Moon'. We learn how to play fly me to the moon but i still need to practice more to make it more fluent.
