the horn was originally from germany, but is called the french horn becox it was developed in france ard the 1960s. the original horn were small and crescent shaped. french horn has circularly coiled tubing. french hunting horn produce abt 12 tones o e natural harmonic series. horn gained flexibility with the hand stopping technique. the hand is used to make the note sharper or flatter. can even change up to a whole tone. the keys alters the length of the tubings. it has a range of 3 octaves starting frm the b below the bass clef. hand-stopping affects intonatn n tone colour. 3 valves, circular coils o narrow tubing ending as a bell, funnel-shape mthpc[coxes the soft, mellow tone] double horns have a extra key[trigger] to switch the horn t b flat.

yep. so our is a double horn. can switch one lei. Xp

pts :
hand stopping - changes intonation and tone color. can change note a tone
mthpc - cauxes soft mellow tone
trigger - switch horn frm f to b flat

Xp more horn tips cumming up.

owch. Xp haha todae was fun.

woke up ard 6.45am then 7 go out with my horn. yea. go sentosa. Xp haha. spent nearly the whoole dae with angela and cheeyee la. haha. quarter of the day making the 'great wall of siloso', quarter of the day getting wet.

aiya. reach sentosa at like 8.20 lidat then delifrance not open, so we went to the carpark and plaed instru. yup. haha. tried flute. haha. half the time no sound cum out. Xp haha. angela worse. nth at all. donkey, want me plae shrek dance. -bish- yup then ate at 9.30[delifrance opened at 9.00] lidat, then went to siloso beahc via bus. yup.

the great wall of siloso was made in four parts. the first part of the wall was created by cheeyee[master builder], angela[amatuer builder 1] and enjia[amatuer builder 2]. master builder was teaching amatuer builders how to make a strong wall. like kiej lapis lidat, one layer wet, one layer dry. Xp then, the rest of the wall came by when they decided that splitting up and making the wall was faster and better. Xp so, the each set to work building walls and joining the walls tgt. haha. 'tsunami' came and hit the wall, but the wall did not fall, due to it's strong structure. the builders had to patch up the wall everytime a tsunami hit it.
in the end, they decided to abandon project. master builder and amatuer builder 1 dug a hole in front of amatuer builder 1's part of the wall to collect water. it resulted in the wall falling. half the wall fell and half is left standing. master builder decided that his wall needed a drainage system to prevent flooding so as to protect his part of the wall and the original wall. it resulted in a 'milo freeze' factory[sand+water looks like milo freeze Xp ]. the milo freeze factory extended too far in and caused part of the wall to start falling in the pit. amatuer builder 2's wall is still fine.
the builders went for a rest and after a while, came back to take a look at the walls. master builder decided that amatuer builder 2's wall was too strong[it's still standing] amd decided to cause it to fall by pelting sand balls at it. amatuer builders 1 and 2 ganged up against master builder and attack master builder's wall. haha. amatuer builder 2's wall was still the most strong one, standing aft so many attacks.

ya. haha. that's what happened to the great wall of siloso. yupx.

ya. we went into the water la. super salty seh, but i like. Xp haha. then we sit in the water and talk very very long. haha. keep drifting away la. the tide keep pulling us further and further away frm our wall, so we had to go back time and agn. aiya. i din wan to get wet la. but aft building the wall, i was already half wet, so ya. might as well wet all through. bish. walked out la. then one part of the water the sand height suddenly drop wor. then had to swim back. -.- couldn't reach the seabed. haha. but fun leh. haha. haha. mostly is angela and cheeyee talk la. haha. they talk wad i oso duno. gong gong le. haha. caux i kept drifting out la, then keep have to swim back t the shallower area. Xp big waves cum. biush. haha. tsunami nv cum la. haha. your prediction all not zun3 one. anws, the 'fortress' is not much use in a case of tsunami. haha. so you run and hide behind the wall also no use. plus it's shorter than you by more than half ur height la. haha.

haha. sit there drift there for like quite long. haha. then there's this particular time everybody's ball keep flying towards us. haha. then volleyball 2 times, both times throw back to the on shore volleyballers. 3 times this beach ball floated in front of us. then i nice nice go pick for the in water ppl. haha. the next time lazy to pick le, make cheeyee go. haha. okiex. then continued getting wet or rather getting saturated.

Xp haha. evil person made us wet also. haha

went out of the water, nearly froze. ouh ya. we destroyed the great wall of siloso caux this grp of kids were trying to 'invade' our wall. haha. xin xin ke ke make le hab t destroy. haha. but nvm. haha. we kick it down ma, then i 'overkick', accidentally kick sand onto this person suntanning. Xp haha. but he deserves it. yup. just now we in the water then he and his friends came ard and splashed here and there, jump in the water etc, buish. wet us became even wetter, if we could be. yup. haha. ran away the moment the sand reached the person. Xp haha. got scapegoat there tho. Xp sry! haha.

went up and realised sum one splash sand on our stuff. who cares? haha. freezing la. but the sand hot like xiao. then walk until feet very can3. went and showered. then me sit there and take care of the stuff while they went and showered, which took like nearing 30 mins[?]. yup. then went for lunch. at delifrance[agn]. haha. yes. this one got aircon.

[haha. quite true actually.Xp ]

It's hard to believe that the Pentagon website has this surprisingly un-PC sub-section listing of some more obscure WMD's (Weapons of Mass Destruction): The following is a list of more obscure forms of domestic "Banned" Weapons of Mass Destruction. These are the most insidious and dangerous weapons of all. To the common lay person they appear innocuous and non-lethal, but in the right hands they present a threat of incalculable proportions. Please read the following and heed all precautions therewith.

PICCOLO: The minute dimensions of this weapon make it especially lethal as it is easily concealed and can be set off just about anywhere. As a solo weapon this device emits a high pitched squeal that directly targets the inner ear. The application of this tone temporarily disorients its intended victim rendering him unable to react. The natural reaction of covering one's ears to reduce the intense pain causes military personnel within a 100 yard radius to drop their weapons leaving them defenseless to further attack. Applied in concert with a second piccolo of slightly higher or lower pitch, the weapons produce the effect of an ice pick through the eardrum and may cause profuse bleeding of the aural cavity. These weapons are constructed in 3 forms; metal, composite materials, wood, or any combination of the three. The all metal piccolos are especially lethal. The only countermeasure to this weapon is to apply psychological warfare in the following manner. Compliment the musician on her: Clothes Hair Shoes. This will distract the musician(s) from emitting her deadly tones and cause her to gab endlessly about herself. This in itself takes us to another problem man has dealt with for a thousand years and to which there is no antidote. Good Luck!

FLUTE: Slightly less effective as the piccolo but still nothing to be trifled with. The flute possesses the same destructive qualities as the piccolo but is required in greater numbers to do so. 6th and 7th grade females are especially effective with this weapon and are to be approached with extreme caution.

OBOE: This weapon may appear harmless at first sight. The instrument's stealth qualities lure its intended victims into a false state of security, and then hit you without mercy. The oboe itself is a harmless composite or wooden conical tube. Once the ordnance(reed) is inserted, it is a weapon of tremendous power. One comforting factor is that the oboe is only as dangerous as the musician who wields it. At first glance the operator of the oboe appears sweet and demure and quite approachable. Do not be fooled by this technique of deception. The oboist is actually a very high strung and temperamental foe. This is caused by the perpetual search for the perfect reed, which we all know doesn't exist. Those who play on plastic reeds are the bottom dwellers of the oboe world and especially dangerous. The oboe is capable of producing a tone of laser-like quality. The sheer capabilities of volume produced can overpower an entire concert band. The resulting backpressure produced by over blowing has a two way effect. It allows the musician to play seemingly forever on one breath resulting in sympathetic vibrations causing bullet proof glass and diamonds to shatter into deadly flying shards. The warning signs of impending doom occur when the musician raises the body of the instrument to her mouth to blow dust from under a key. This is how the weapon is cocked. If you ever see an oboist do this run for cover for all **** is about to break loose. The second effect of this weapon's backpressure is to cause its owner to eventually go insane. On rare occasion an oboist's head has been known to explode while firing their weapon. The only countermeasure to this weapon is to remove and professionally destroy the ordnance (reed). Doing so will also incur the wrath of its owner, so use extreme caution. The first master of the oboe as a weapon was Melvin "Schwartz" (Oklahoma All-State Band 1982), name changed to protect the guilty. He single handedly destroyed a performance of the Howard Hanson Romantic Symphony Finale under McBeth with his laser-like tones and inconsistent attacks. To this day he has a bounty on his head and was last seen tending bar in Tijuana.

Eb CLARINET: The Eb clarinet is the Tasmanian Devil of the woodwind family. Entirely uncontrollable and unpredictable, its blunderbuss like emissions can occur without warning. It is as much a danger to its owner as it is to the intended victim. For this reason the Eb clarinet is not in wide use today and only used by highly trained professionals and circus band daredevils.

Bb CLARINET: As the flute is to the piccolo, the Bb Clarinet is to the Eb Clarinet. The only time a Bb clarinet is considered truly dangerous is in the hands of a saxophonist doubling on clarinet. His seemingly lacking ability to adjust his air to the clarinet causes a tone so forced and horrific that decorum prevents me from continuing.

ALTO, BASS, CONTRA BASS CLARINET: The Scud missiles of the clarinet family. Considered to be low grade weapons, these clarinets are of limited lethality due to the geekiness of their operators.

BASSOON: This is a weapon designed to start wars. Used primarily indoors, this weapon's unique tone can cause great embarrassment in social situations. Also known as the "farting bed post" the bassoonist will hide behind a set of curtains at an official state dinner or similar function. With the help of a diplomatic operative during the meal, the intermittent flatulent tones emitted by the bassoon can be blamed on certain visiting high government officials, causing great embarrassment and the possible beginning of hostilities between two countries. The best countermeasure to the bassoon involves lighter fluid and matches you fill in the blanks).

SOPRANO SAXOPHONE: Mere words cannot begin to describe the offensive capabilities of this most heinous weapon. The mere mention of its name can send the most battle-hardened veterans screaming into the night…which by coincidence, is a fairly accurate description of the sounds which emanate from it (also known as the “Gorelick Effect”).

ALTO SAX: Originally invented by Adolph Sax as the result of an evening of much cheap wine and a dare by a drunken horn player, he produced an instrument that is neither brass nor woodwind. The only intended victim of this vile weapon is the concert band French horn player. Nothing is worse than hearing a great brass lick only to be obscured by the overly reedy tone and wobbly "vibrato" of some half crazed alto sax doubling the horns and overplaying them. Composers and arrangers are to blame as much as the alto players. Older players unable to temper their 1940's swing band vibrato are also a danger. The only counter measure is to question their manhood by daring the player to play Charlie Parker's "Donna Lee" at 230 beats per minute. That should shut 'em up!

TENOR SAX: (See Alto Sax) Counter measure, throw down the gauntlet with a dare to render John Coltrane's "Giant Steps".

BARITONE SAX: A tenor or alto wannabe, this instrument is flaccid and harmless unless played in the style of Stephen "Doc" Kupka (Tower of Power). His sporadic well placed grunting and punctuated style, when discovered by young players, can cause discomfort among the average school director. The only counter measure to this is self medication by the teacher in the form of tequila shots or similar substances.

TRUMPET: Obviously one would think that a trumpeter's greatest weapon is his ability to play high notes at great volume. This is a misconception that has been perpetuated unwittingly by great performers like Maynard Ferguson and Dizzy Gillespie. The danger is not in the player who can play high. The danger lies in the player who THINKS he can play high. A young player's incessant caterwauling and inflated ego are a danger to himself and all those around him. The best effective counter measure is to allow the player to continue his high note practice (even encourage him to go higher and louder) until his lips explode or he cracks a tooth jamming his face into the mouthpiece.

FRENCH HORN: French horns thankfully are a danger only to a small group of people, as their bells point in the wrong direction. They are only a danger to those unfortunate enough to have to sit behind them. Their intonation problems and constant cacking of pitches is of great annoyance to those brass players sitting behind them. Though lately the introduction of Plexiglas reflectors has reduced the danger to those behind the horns, unfortunately it presents a greater danger to the players themselves and those in front of them. Upon hearing their actual tones coming back at them, some hornists have been known to actually puke right on stage due to the hideousness of their own tone.

TROMBONE: A unique application, the instrument itself is not the real danger. The person playing the instrument is what is truly dangerous. The trombone and its player are the original "smart bomb". This weapon is most effective in high tech warfare areas. Insertion of one or more trombonists into a warfare computer center instantly lowers the aggregate I.Q. in the room. The trombonist's incredible stupidity is a lethal bio weapon that spreads at an incredible rate. Within 5 minutes of exposure all computer operators within a 50 foot radius are reduced to drooling idiots incapable of the simplest motor functions and bowel control. Use of trombonists as weapons was outlawed by the Geneva Convention in 1999 after an ugly incident at a Dixieland convention in Sacramento.

BASS TROMBONE: The perverse effects of this instrument are so foul and disgusting that decorum prohibits listing them here.

BARITONE/EUPHONIUM: This is a weapon of mass confusion. Euphonium players are the Rodney Dangerfields of the brass world. Young players especially don't know their place in the band. They double French horns, trombones, saxophones, tubas in octaves, bass clarinets, bassoons...yadda, yadda, yadda! Euphonium orchestral parts are played by the 2nd trombone or worse, the tuba player! For this reason most euphonium.........baritone...(WHATEVER !) players resort to doubling on trombone. This is when they become dangerous. (see trombone).

TUBA: This is a sonic weapon that when set off can produce sub sonic tones causing a general feeling of uneasiness and queasiness to those within its effective range. Also one may attach a sousaphone to a marching column of soldiers. As all tubists drag, the ever slowing performance of oom-pahs will eventually reduce the marching soldiers to a snail's pace causing them to be late for a battle or not arrive at all. The most effective countermeasure is to feed the tubist with great quantities of beer (imports if you have them). It won't improve his playing but makes him more enjoyable to be around.

SNARE DRUM/TRAP SET: This weapon affects only a very small demographic: teenage girls and the fathers of these girls with steady jobs and liquid bank accounts. The snare drummer and the jazz/rock variety of set player act almost like a computer worm. The drummer will attach itself to an unsuspecting teenage girl and milk her and her father's finances in such a way as to not be noticed by the father until it is too late. Drummers are the leaches of the music world and can only be countered by being forced to get a real day job. This will reduce the drummer's "coolness" factor and the daughter will immediately lose interest.

Golden Rules For Ensemble Playingby G.W.A. Swing

1. Everyone should try to play the same piece.
2. Stop at every repeat sign and discuss in detail whether to take the repeat or not. Audiences will love this a lot!
3. If you play a wrong note, give a nasty look to one of your partners.
4. Keep your fingering chart handy. You can always catch up with the others further on in the piece.
5. Carefully tune your instrument before playing. That way you can play out of tune all night with a clear conscience.
6. Take your time turning pages.
7. The right note at the wrong time is a wrong note (and vice-versa).
8. If everyone gets lost except you, follow those who get lost.
9. Strive to get the maximum NPS (note per second). That way you gain the admiration of the incompetent.
10. Markings for slurs, dynamics and ornaments should not be observed. They are only there to embellish the score.
11. If a passage is difficult, slow down. If it's easy, speed it up. Everything will work itself out in the end.
12. If you are completely lost, stop everyone and say, "I think we should tune".
13. Happy are those who have not perfect pitch, for the kingdom of music is theirs.
14. If the ensemble has to stop because of you, explain in detail why you got lost. Everyone will be very interested.
15. A true interpretation is realized when there remains not one note of the original.
16. When everyone else has finished playing, you should not play any notes you have left.
17. A wrong note played timidly is a wrong note. A wrong note played with authority is an interpretation.
18. Rests are irrelevant.
19. Punctuality is irrelevant.
20. Bathing and/or mouthwash is irrelevant.
21. "Da Capo" means decapitate.
22. "Crescendo" means crush everything in sight.
23. "Poco a poco" means poke everyone with a Klingon torture stick.
24. "Diminuendo" means being sarcastic and is irrelevant.
25. Expression, phrasing and vibrato is damaging to the collective and is irrelevant.
26. Playing in a bouncy, detached manner is irrelevant.......

Richard Strauss' Rules for Conductors

1. Remember that you are making music not to amuse yourself, but to delight your audience.
2. You should not perspire when conducting: only the audience should get warm.
3. Conduct Salome and Elektra as if they were by Mendelssohn: Fairy Music.
4. Never look encouraginly at the brass, except with a brief glance to give an important cue.
5. But never let the horns and woodwinds out of your sight. If you can hear them at all they are still too strong.
6. If you think that the brass is not blowing hard enough, tone it down another shade or two.
7. It is not enough that you yourself should hear every word the soloist sings. You should know it by heart anyway. The audience must be able to follow without effort. If they do not understand the words they will go to sleep.
8. Always accompany a singer in such a way that he can sing without effort.
9. When you think you have reached the limits of prestissimo, double the pace.
10. If you follow these rules carefully you will, with your fine gifts and your great accomplishments, always be the darling of your listeners.

anws, i think marching rawks like duno wad. and today we march until quite good leh, considering that we only ran through it once and jiu took the video le. it's amazing how we were all so eager to take the video agn after realising that the ava ppl took us without us noeing and we screwed up in that in that one. like everybody went 'harh?! they took le arh?!' 'aiyaaaa.' 'i screwed this one up', 'i screwed that one up' etc. and it's very touching how everybody spontaneously went 'can we take agn?' and so on. without even arranging 1st. and like 1st time i hear us askin to march agn. yup. really touching. and the foot drills also. took 2 times because we felt that the 1st was't good enough. it's really touching that we all agree tgt to do the same thing agn just to perfect it. yupx. really.the second times were obviously better than the 1st times. so toucheddddd. really.

anws, same for syf, we must work tgt too, to perfect everything to the best of our abilities. work hard and strive for GOLD WITH HONORS! yep. must work hard. not forgetting to rest when needed tho.

ps: sry arh, wani, pang seh you. Xp haha. sho ke lian arh? one person settle the whole band. all da best. haha. really sry arh. no choice right? i go make ic, em and dor got peerleading. haha. so liu2 you to do la. haha. really sry arh.

d a m n. accidentally told sam ytd. sam, forget abt it ok? pls? thanks. dun ask anymore hor. and yes, oranges.[finally right? Xp] hms. just rmbed that our section have to buck up alot. esp in volume. and plae instead of blasting. haix. yupx. [qoute : 'you are the loudest horn section among the 5 bands i teach arhhh. butttt.... it's still not loud enuff.' - mrs chua] haha. quite sao3 xing4 la. cause we really tried our best to plae as loud as we could. and why nv sae eupho one. =X they oso plaeing maaaa. nvm la. de horn section is impttttt. mus plae loud loud. yes. must.

to mah section(and i doubt they'll read it. so READ ARH!)

yes. it's to you all. uhuh. ya. like mrs chua saes, we must plae louder lo. apparently we might sound loud during sectionals in our usual area. but because of the ceiling and walls etc, the sound will be reflected when we plae, thus creating the illusion of us plaeing very loudly. so we must ban1 jia1... yes move place. move to sum where without shelter la. yup like mrs chua sae abt one of her bands the ppl. they go field and plae to each other frm one end t the other end. we must learnt frm these ppl and try it out lo. feedback frm someone saes that we were blasting, which made it loud, but made the sound of the instrument really bad. really think we should improve on our sound and intonation and volume la. ya. hmmsss. we like take things abit light le lo. we are supposed to plae tgt, but during sectionals, we are each doing our own stuff, and not striving to plae tgt lo. it's really bad how we only take the last 10-20 minutes of sectionals to plae as a section, which doesn't help much seeing as we all go : 'waittt.i not ok yet.' etc. ya. t's really bad la. cause we're supposed to be ready at all times, no? ready and alert. and also sumtimes mrs chua conduct the time some of us still blurblur there and supposed to plae le then still stoning. ya. it's really really bad la. it really shows how unprepares we are lo. ya. seeing as such right, our problems are : volume; plaeing tgt; intonation; tone of the instru; alertness; unseriousness and summore which doesn't want to pop into my head now. =X ya. really. all these must be improved upon. yup. we must strive tgt to plae well ya.

to da sec 1s

dun think we dao-ing u or what la. we are not. we just need the time we have to work on our pieces for syf. i undastan how you all feel la. i was frm your 'kind' of batch lo. the batch who comes in and all the snrs are practicing fur syf. really. our yr was quite bad la. we were only 'visited' like very little time, as compared to you two. ya. you two must work tgt and help each other out when we cannot help you k? that's how you will improve. by learning frm one another. except is learn the good pts la, the bad pts dun learnnnn! =X ya. you two dun owaes come dun come lidat lo. consistency and commitment. try to go fur band before all else la. lessons nvm la. but if it's like it's not that kind of reasons that is a must must one, like you want to go out with ppl or wadeva, pls pls pls dun do this la. pls come for every band practice that you can la.

why is it that when ppl are angry with each other, others are usually dragged in?

mom and dad re angry with each other for i have no reason what. and she's making me tell my pap that i'm going out tmr and the day after tmr and she's not gonna care, she says. bud she did. he's telling me to tell mom when she told me to tell him. i hate it when they do this and i hate it when i have to tell them things that i've already told them. i told them i going band chalet only a few days ago and even aranged things le here they come ordering me to tell the again and all. i reall hate this.
