Week 7
What did I think of my music jingle?
I think it was very good in fact. This was very different than my usual random finale compositions, as this time I didn't have to play the song on the guitar. I made a very creative jingle with C G Am F for the chords. this simple four-chord structure made it very easy for me to play with my composition. I made a very complicated violin segment that matched very well, and I used many techniques in creating the melody, including the double-layer technique that Sir Herry taught us. All in all I'm very satisfied with my jingle, as it sounds like a good distinct song.

Instrument class
Instrument class was once again used for preparing our ensemble song. We did even better this time as our saxophone players have learned from their teacher. We had a more coherent practice, and the guitarists (Cindy and I) learned their solo parts from Mr. John. Everything was going well honestly, but Jordi was a problem. He didn't know how to play his part, so we wasted time waiting for him to learn. Finally, he managed to get the song though, so we were able to practice efficiently.
