Week 10: March 19 & 21

How is my understanding of blues after my performance?

After performing my 12-bar blues composition and improvisation, I realized that I have received a lot of knowledge and I know more about blues compared to at the start of this term. Now, I know that to create a blues composition and/or improvisation, we need to apply the blues scale. Then, there is a 12-bar blues composition format and syncopation, which is the displacement of the usual strong beat onto a weak beat.

On Monday, we practiced in front of the class one by one. After all of us have performed, we practiced as an ensemble for the upcoming assessment. We did it well, and I think we will do well in next class's assessment. On Wednesday the instrument period was taken for the assessment too. I think our hard work has been paid well.
