How is my progress in jazz ensemble?
On Monday, we were divided into 3 groups for our jazz ensemble assessment. My group consists of 2 guitar players (Owen & Ynigo), 1 saxophone player (Evan) and 1 piano player (myself). We decided to perform "Autumn Leaves", as all of us are familiar with the song. I encountered a problem while rehearsing with Mr. Hary: I am used to play the song in E minor but we are going to play in A minor. That problem made me do a lot of mistakes while practicing together as a group.
As a group, we practiced with Mr. Hary for our upcoming assessment. While the others are playing the song with ease, I was struggling to keep up because of the difference in melodic keys, on both Monday and Wednesday classes. I was so not used to the new melodic key I made a lot of mistakes while practicing in the group. I will practice so I can improve my performance.
