Dear angklungees,
Here is a video of the song we are playing, "Stand By Me" featuring the original singer Ben E. King. This is what you should be sounding like - relaxed and unhurried:
I also found a combination of "Stand By Me" and Sean Kingston's "Beautiful Girl"; the underbelly (background rhythm) is "Stand By Me" all the way. Sounds interesting and refreshing! Maybe we can ask Mr A to let us do it like this eh :D

Enjoy!

We're REGISTERED!
Dear angklung members,
LATEST UPDATE: We are registered for the competition at Genting; I've just submitted our group.
This means we now need to:
1. Take our practices REALLY seriously - no fooling around, no latecoming plus lots of SELF-DISCIPLINE!
2. Get our costumes ready; those who have costumes already PLEASE KEEP THEM AT HOME.
3. Schedule another day for our practice.
That's all for now; going for meeting! See you all later! :)

WELCOME BACK TO SCHOOL! :)
Dear ANGKLUNG members,
WELCOLME BACK and a very HAPPY NEW YEAR TO YOU ALL :)
Some updates for the new year:
1. NEW INSTRUCTOR
Yes, Mr K has informed us that he has got too many schools and he has to let go of some of them, much as he was very sad to do so. As such we have got a NEW instructor for the ensemble, whom we think would be an interesting and refreshing change for the group. As for his details, we will let you find out for yourself when practice starts so MAKE SURE you come for practice when it starts! :P
2. STUDENT COMMITTEE 2009
As the new year begins, we have decided to create a student committee body to help run the ensemble more efficiently. As such, we would like you, as a member of the group, to make careful nominations of pupils whom you feel are able to LEAD you. Here are the posts you can nominate your fellow members for:

Clap@Khatib Racial Harmony Day Celebrations
Dear angklungees,
That was really a good performance we had on Saturday - the comments from parents were it actually sounded better than what we did at SYF! It goes to show that definitely, we should try to RELAX as much as possible before any performances to do well, yeah? :)
Enough of talk.. here are the exciting snapshots of the event :) Enjoy!
