Practicing every seventh period, members of chorus want to show their best performance to OVS parents on parents weekend.

This year we are going to present three songs, the City Called Heaven, Cross the Wide Missouri, and the Motown Medley. By performing three different types of songs, we want to give the audience the feelings of sorrow, sentiment, and vitality.

I joined the OVS last year, and I have participated as a singer and a drummer. This time I only need to play drums for three of the Motown songs and sing the rest of the songs. However, I found out that it is very difficult for me to play drums in the transitions. Because these three songs have very different pace, I made a lot of mistakes during the practices. I have not played correctly one time during all our practices.

However, I kept listening and listening to the song, and practice the transitions in my room everyday. Luckily, in the two performances on Friday, I didn’t make any mistakes. I felt that the effort that I have put in is worth it.
