Hey people! So.....

Us leaders have an idea about us choir singing some choral pop songs like Korean pop, Chinese pop, English pop and all rather than the usual choral style.

Any suggestions? Post them on the tagboard!
e.g. Nobody, Sorry Sorry, Glee

I personally think we should sing Somebody To Love by the Glee Cast! But please don't suggest songs like Abracadabra by Brown Eyed Girls although I like them or Lucifer by SHINee (i know some of you girls like SHINee~) because they will be too hard to arrange and Gene will die.

Woohoo I am so excited about this so please give some suggestions asap! Most probably we'll ask again before the Gioia concert tomorrow. Remember, 6.45pm at the Esplanade Art Gallery! Please do not wear slippers or shorts and wear appropriate clothing. Be punctual! You guys can bring a piece of paper to note down which song you like best and why and tell on Monday. Easiest way to get there is by MRT, you can change stations to Serangoon or Dhoby Ghaut via North East Line then to Esplanade MRT station and you can find your way to the Art Gallery.

Also, choir practice from 1pm-5pm on Monday!

Announcements

Practice is as usual on Friday 2 30pm. And afterwards there'll be teachers' day rehearsal which will end around 6 30pm. Check out and listen to the Ave Maria song, the version that Ms Lee wants, the Taipei version or something like that i think. Anyway, there's something which i really dont like. I dont mean to pinpoint anyone or trying to be mean but.. you see. I AM NOT YOUR SL. SO PLEASE DO NOT SPAM MY INBOX. When you missed a practice and you wanna know what we've done and so on, this kind of things you can find out from your friends or SL right? I cannot stand it. Unless you cant reach your SL or anything then message me laa. UGHH. I seriously hope this will come to an end.
D; TYVM!

reach out for the skies



At a time when hope was low
The journey seemed unsure
But through it all
We've kept the flame alive

Now standing proud and tall
Our spirit strong and free
Building on hopes and dreams
It's here we want to be

Chorus
Let's reach out for the skies
With wings we soar up high
Our dreams we'll all achieve
We'll make our destiny

Let's reach out for the skies
With wings we soar up high
Our dreams we'll all achieve
Let's soar and reach for the skies

When I think about my dreams
The future it can be
The time has come for me
To strive and to achieve

With hopes within our hearts
As one hand in hand
For family and our friends
Find More lyrics at www.sweetslyrics.com
Let's do the best we can

Chorus
Let's reach out for the skies
With wings we soar up high
Our dreams we'll all achieve
We'll make our destiny

Let's reach out for the skies
With wings we soar up high
Our dreams we'll all achieve
Let's soar and reach for the skies

Let's reach out for the skies
With wings we soar up high
Our dreams we'll all achieve
We'll make our destiny

Let's reach out for the skies
With wings we soar up high
Our dreams we'll all achieve
Let's soar and reach for the skies

Our dreams we'll all achieve
Let's soar and reach for the skies

We can touch the skies..

contacting your sectional leaders

hello! i'd like you guys to know that i am not everyone's sectional leader.

so sop 2s: me
sop 1s: jeng woon
altos: you hui.

NOT

everyone: me

jeez!! sorry guizeeee, i'm just really tired of getting sms-es from people who are not in my section. it. bugs. me. so if you have any enquiries/problems, contact your respective sectional leaders, ok?

thank you! i'll see you on thursday


p.s. sell yo' tickets as soon as possible! don't make assumptions about people. you'll never know what his/her answer will be. just go ahead and ask:)

-gene png.

oh yeah oh yeah oh yeah HEY!

(CVSS Choir, NDP 2008! I miss the times awwww)
Hey everyone(Or those who actually read this blog)! So, this Friday (23/7) we're having the concert thingy at Paya Lebar Methodist Girls'. Have you sold any tickets? If yes, good for you! If not, do try okay?
Anyway, here's some advice you WILL take:
- No spicy food!
-No heaty food!
- No fried food!
- No whispering!
- No shouting! (Carolynn~)

You don't want to sound like a rapper, trust me.
Practice tomorrow (20/7) will be cancelled, due to O Levels Listening Comprehension. There will be one last choir practice before the concert on the 22nd, this Thursday, 2.30pm.

Don't be late, heed my advice, stick to them. See you guys on Thursday!
Serena!
P.S I think I want to make a NDP post for the CVSS choir blog because I love CVSS Choir and NDP2008 too much! Nathan Hartono! *swoon* Be sure to stick around :D

Friday, July 16, 2010

attention!!

posting on facebook doesn't help at all! not a lot of people take statuses very seriously. JUST SHAMELESSLY POST ON THEIR WALLS/CALL THEM. do as i say because we need to sell tickets and i want us to sing in front of 600 people, got it? you'll have to be friendly and confident when you are telling people to buy the tix too. if you are shy, you're not going to be very persuasive. BE SHAMELESS (not too shameless, please.)

also, choir starts at 2.30PM on thursday. if you cannot make it, inform your sectional leaders.

have a great weekend guys!:)

How Png Gene made CVSS choir history.

I have come to a very noble conclusion. The time has come.. to tell you the tale of how Gene almost died. Indeed! The tale that every kingsmen and knight has heard of. You will read it here.

Our journey to Genting was exhausting. We braved the harsh weather, traveled up mountains and hills and crossed rivers and bridges on horses. After 3 very long hours, we arrived.
We walked our horses to the stables provided by the kind hotel people and went back to the hotel to get some rest.

On the 2nd and 3rd day, we practiced very hard. Armed with our swords and armors, we sang songs of flowing rivers and underaged princesses. Very tough, indeed.

On the 4th day, we had a friendship performance. We were all very nervous. But we all knew that we could not escape performing. We all took a deep breath and were led on stage by our glamorous conductor.

I was given the most difficult task of all. To play the piano. However, I could not locate the piano. It was no where to be seen. COULD IT BE THE DRAGONS? I've always known that they were up to something. But alas! My sharp eyes spotted the piano. It was on the ground, not on the stage! My heart started to pound. I have to get to the piano! The choir is nothing without their noble pianist. I braced myself as I stood at the edge of the stage. Gingerly, I lifted my gown. Just when I was going to jump off the stage...

I was saved by a knight in shining armor (on a handsome horse)! Could it be.... ? Sir Alex Gaskarth! Why, never in my wildest dreams would I ever... "Fear not, my lady! For I will direct you to the path of righteousness!" He picked me off the ground and placed me behind him. The bunch of beavers behind him squeaked eagerly as the horse trotted to the middle of the stage.

STAIRS! This knight is a genius. I gave him a curtsy and he nodded. "I will return for you," he said with a kind smile. I walked down the stairs and went to the piano. Then, the performance started.

That, my pickles, was the long awaited story.
Love,
Gene.

Choir remember

Hi choirean ,

thanks for forgiving [im too itchy handed ] ,but anyway if you saw the notice abt the change of time and date, please spread around . But no bad spreadings [ like not going to choir ] ....

Sec 2 ARE GOING FOR KUALA LUMPUR TRIP ....happie happie..

Anyway , i just came across a video of a song called carol of the bells its by the celtic woman , i like their high pitch voice hehe...





From

Kah SHin

Fixed

There. Don't have to be too hard on yourself, Kahshin. It's just a layout and HTML can be a little tricky sometimes.

Note: Do not attempt to change the layout from now on. Okay? Let's try to make this a proper blog. So... No music on autoplay, no pop-ups. They can get a little annoying.

Only updating is allowed.

That being said...

THE SCHEDULE FOR THE MARCH HOLIDAYS HAVE BEEN CHANGED AND ARE AS FOLLOWS

Monday 15th March - 10 AM to 12 PM
Wednesday 17th March - 12.30PM to 2.30PM

That is all :)

Sunday, March 7, 2010

Sorry to all choir members :(

Sorry choir , it was me who did the job to spoil the blog . Im very very sorry please forgive . I was trying to put a pop-up window into the blog to make it more nicer but doing that , the layout must be changed into template so when i did it , it changed into this ugly format i didn't know it would be affected but all the same its all my fault .Scold me , hate me , dun talk to me . Your have the every right to do that cause i was the one who distroyed it . But the only solution that i can think of is to change from template to layout back to retrieve the last time choir's background . If gene's friend cannot do it , then i think for the punishment i shall make new template to post as compassvale choir . Im absolute sorry . Very sorrie .

Hi compassvale choirean

Haha~ I just thought of Singaporean & i thought of choirean . I know its a bad name anyway , if u read this blog you will know this blog rox! [Even though it only talks about the timing so on and so forth ] .


But Anyway , goddess does rock once in a while [ hehe ] [goddess maybe angry somehow ^_-.

I totally agree that on stage we must smile but the problem is when i smile people doesn't say that i look as though im smiling . Must I smile as quite as clowns who put on rubbery lipstick mouth . I think it looks totally ' AWESOME'

But anyway , anyone who read this , especially the secondary 1.

Let me tell you , compassvale choir rocks the world .

Three country dances.



Today, Jeng Woon, You Hui and I went for a choir workshop. We sang this.
It's quirky and fun! We don't have the music for this (Cos we were late + we missed the first lesson) so the choir can't sing it ): Unfortunate.

Oh hush thee, my baby
The night is behind us
And black are the waters that sparkled so green
The moon or the cold looks downward to find
At rest in the hollow that wrestle between

Where pillow meet pillow
Then soft be thy prayer
A weary beat flipper
Is curled at thy knees
The storm shall not wake thee
Nor shark overtake thee
Asleep in the arms of this slow swinging sea

Where pillow meet pillow
Then soft be thy prayer
A weary beat flipper
Is curled at thy knees
The storm shall not wake thee
Nor shark overtake thee
Asleep in the arms of this slow swinging sea
