Not to say they will not appear on ClubSNAP, but chances are slim given the fact they are very busy with their studies and spend most of their time playing music.

I'll rather move away from the piano and burn it. :bsmilie:

I didn't ask... She and I not very close.. But should be grade 8 since she's from CJC also.
Why? Thinking of going for the degree is it?
Well, if you are, good luck. But personally, I think other courses offer better job markets. The university job market is looking up, yes.. but I don't think the newspaper said anything about good job prospect for musical dreamers.
Wat liao ai, i probably z.z..z... listening to all these stuffs... no offend, but I just happened to be tone-deaf..igpenguin said:here's what the prospective keyboard applicant has to prepare for auditions:
1. One etude or technical study of your choice
2. Any composition of Bach, Scarlatti or Handel
3. The first movement from any Sonata by Haydn, Mozart, Beethoven or Schubert (additional movements are welcome but not required)
4. One 19th century composition of your choice
5. One 20th century composition of your choice.
That's very nice. Never really played a Steinway before.... Boesendorfer also never play before.Clown said:i practice on a steinway almost every week. if not then i use a stuttgart.

Can you arrange to ship that to me since it's unused? ;pigpenguin said:There's a Boesendorfer grand in NUS LT13... gathering dust with the music stands in the storeroom when there's no events. Lovely with ultra-low bass note (F?) - not lovely in my hands, haha! Tori Amos' piano of choice...
