HSC performance pieces (2 Viewers)

[Jazz Man Tim]

you do music one, so im not too sure...

im quite sure that i need to perform my core, my 2 additional topic pieces and my 3 ext pieces for the trial tho... sigh

 

[Emma-Jayde]

I know I have to do all 6 pieces. So everyone else probably has to do all theirs too. I have all mine, I'm just having issues with program order.
These are my pieces-

"The Lost Sailor" -Christopher Bowen
"A Bit of Earth" from The Secret Garden -Marsh Norman
"Poor Wandering One!" from The Pirates of Penzance- Gilbert and Sullivan
"The Prayer" (Actually singing it properly, as a DUET!) - David Foster and Carole Bayer Sager
"Mein Glaubiges Hertze" ("My Heart Ever Faithful")-Bach
"Voi Che Sappete" from The Marriage of Figaro - Mozart

But the Bach and the Sullivan can't go together, and neither can the Sullivan and the Mozart, or the Bowen and the Norman. And I want to do the Sullivan last.

When trying to decide my order last year, my teacher told me to put the pieces in an order so that you won't get tired halfway through the program, ie. don't put 3 pieces that require a lot of energy next to each other, have 'rest' pieces in between. And always end with a big bang

Last year, I started off with my Bach, and then followed it with my Carl Vine piece and it worked really well. So in a way, it doesn't really matter about putting pieces of completely different periods next to each other -- contrast is good actually.

Hope that helps somewhat in choosing your orders

 

[magicspell]

yeh.. we have to play all 6 pieces for trials as well. trying to decide on the order atm... i just don't know where to put my australian.. it's soo random - doesn't seem to fit anywhere! lol

[babywhitto]

I made my final choices on monday...haha.

Im doing...

1 - "Who will Love me as I am?" - Musical "Side Show"
2 - "I Still Believe" - Duet - Musical - "Miss Saigon"
3 - "L-O-V-E" - Jazz
4 - "Worse Things I Could Do" - Instrument and its Rep.

not sure on the order though...have to talk to my teacher.

 

[Aimz- Lou.]

is it normal that we are not performing our entire repertoire for our trials? we only have to perform electives 2+3 for our trials (we just had elective one assessment task and have had core performance and core viva assessments already)

Yep. That's what we're doing too.

 

[white lady]

I'm singing for mine

Core: "Into the West" - Annie Lennox
Elective 2: "This is How it Goes" - Missy Higgins
Elective 3: "You're the Voice" - John Farnham

Hell's Kitchen - Dream Theater
Erotomania - Dream Theater
Flamenco - Jurg Hochweber

[vas y molo]

I do music 1 and im doing all performance for my electives...

in order:

His eye is on the sparrow (from sister act II)- 20th/21st century music
Pur di cesti o bocca bella- an instrument and its repetoire
Hallelujiah- popular music
Je ne regrette rien- 20th/21st century music (core)

 

[littlewing]

i also do music 1 and i'm doing all voice...

a case of you by joni mitchell for an inst and its rep
time is a healer by eva cassidy for 20th and 21st
the letter by pj harvey for rock music
and les feuilles mortes for my core, for 20th and 21st

good luck to everyone in trials, we also get to perform our entire programme even though we're only being assessed on one piece.

 

[Emma-Jayde]

Order, order, what to do?
How does this program sound to you people...If you know some of the pieces, any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

"The Lost Sailor"-Christopher Bowen (Last 25 years)
"Mein Glaubiges Hertze" - (a.k.a My Heart Ever Faithful in english)-Bach oratorio (Extension)
"The Prayer"-Carole Bayer-Sager (Extension, ensemble piece. Duet)
"A Bit of Earth"-Marsha Norman, from The Secret Garden (Last 25 years)
"Voi Che Sapette"-Mozart, from The Marriage of Figaro (Extension)
"Poor Wand'ring One"-Gilbert and Sullivan, from The Pirates of Penzance (Additional. 19th century)

 

[Phanatical]

Personally, I think you can do without the whiny Celine Dion song. Otherwise, the program looks very sturdy, with a good range of styles.

 

[Emma-Jayde]

The whiney Celine Dion version of The Prayer is exactly that. Whiney. I'm doing a different version, a lot more difficult than hers.
Plus I need and ensemble piece...And I love singing soprano/tenor duets!
The duet gives me a bit of a break from more demanding pieces though.

 

[Lord_Auggh]

Gday all!

I play guitar (PRS all the way woot)

I do music 1 and I'm going all performance... doing:

- "The Hunt" by Tommy Emmanuel

- "Find the Real" by Alter Bridge

- "Treat Yo Mama" by John Butler Trio

- "Red House" by the master, Hendrix

Red House didn't seem to work in school though so I'll probably replace it. I'm thinking "Down to the Waterline" by Dire Straits

Good luck to all ...not long now!!!
