Exam

We had to do a vocal exam in front of Chloe where she plays us a tune of sixteen beats and then we have to sing it back and she would play the first key to help us. She started off by having us all sit in a circle and Chloe would clap a tune and we had to copy and do it in time and all of us had to do it. This was difficult because not everyone done the correct timing and the right tune. Chloe did this to help us get a rough idea of what the exam would be like. The more we had to do it, the more harder it got. So once we got through the circle once, as well as clapping...Chloe then added clicking, and then afterwards she added a slap on the knee.

Afterwards she wanted us to hum a tune, literally any tune that came up into our head and then everyone had to copy it...we could add claps and clicks if we wanted. This was also difficult because I found it hard to think of a tune on the spot but also listen to everyone else's tune and copy it exactly the same as they done it.

The point in those exercises was because she wanted us to get a feel for the exam and get the idea of rhythm. She then left us to practice some rhythm in groups and then we was called up one at a time to do the exam. I was second and I was so nervous but Chloe was really supportive and helped me with the exam as much as she could.

This was the other half of our singing unit as well as the show and the blog.
