Mr. Lim Yean Hwee was appointed the Music Director of Regent Wind Symphony in 2002, and has led the band into our first SYF in 2003, in which we managed to clinch the Silver award. Following up the 2 SYFs in 2005 and 2007, the band managed to clinch the Silver award through our hard work.

Hey guys, some pointers that will be helpful after today's practice.

first of all, the band size has been bigger already because our alumni and seniors are back to play! of course we are grateful for everyone that came back:) however due to this, we must be careful with our sound. last time without seniors and alumni, our size was much much smaller so we of course have to project our sound more. but now take note of parts in the songs that the whole band plays together, or have a solo, so that we wouldn't sound imbalanced. (SLs please take a look at conductor scores!) and do not blast... this will help greatly and our problems concerning intonation and sound might be alleviated slightly and in turn, Mr Lim will be able to help us more.

secondly, from tomorrow onwards, we only have 22 days left til our concert date. as you all know, some people's houses are available for sectionals. please make it a point to have your own sectionals outside of band time as these official band practices are for Mr Lim to help us further, not correcting mistakes that we can do by ourselves, e.g. rhythm, pitching.

you guys can do it if you all want to. the concert will be a success if everyone puts in their 120%!

all the best everyone:)

In addition to Edeline's post above,
Band, please be serious about this concert and you all know we don't have much time left; please know/practise your own stuffs before coming. When we get everybody working, we can have a better result... so everybody please put in effort and do your part!

Any questions regarding your pieces, feel free to approach your section leaders or student conductors. Juniors, if you have any questions please don't be afriad/shy to ask your seniors! Let's all work together for this, and take good care of yourselves! (:
