Welcome to NJC Angklung Ensemble's blog! :)

We are a group of carefree students who have gathered together,
regardless of bawahs, normals, atas, kulintang and percussions
to create music like none other with our conductor, Mr Dzul. :D
Teacher i/cs: Mr Tan Chor Yean, Ms Sun

Today was quite an interesting day. In the morning, there was the 39th Student Council Investiture, then in the afternoon there was the Track and Field Meet.

I regret not eating enough breakfast before the Investiture. I was feeling so hungry that I just stoned throughout the ceremony. But I did realise that there were a few Angklungnites who are in the 39th Student Council (of course I knew beforehand, but it was a confirmation). One particular Angklungnite, Faisal, was impossible not to notice. Firstly, because of his physical size, and secondly, because he is the new president.

While it is an honour of the Angklung Ensemble to have the president as one of its members, I was worried that a key member is the president.

Seeing what happened earlier this year when some of our councillors quit, I was imagining what will it be like next year if the same thing happens again.

What if it happens? Hmm...

What can we do to reduce this possibility? Hmm...

Anyway, worries aside, I prefer to talk about happier things. During the sports meet today, I ran into one of the harmoc students I taught last year. She asked me "Do the Angklung members practise often? They are so good!"

Ermm I cannot boast and say things like "No, they are natural talents" right? So I diplomatically said "No lah, it's because Angklung instruments are louder, so they seem to drown the harmoc music, so the music sounds good."

The point is that we must encourage the harmoc side also right? Else how can we have a successful concert?

They think that you are good, so you must be confident of your abilities, then will you get the flow and the "feel". Get it?

Angklung shakes!!!
