Rehearsal Blog 3 - Week 9

 Song List

- Someone You Loved by Lewis Capaldi 

In this rehearsal session I focused on completing Someone You Loved. And took into consideration adding other songs to my repertoire to do with Aimee as she was going to join me as the singer. Aimee joined me in this session to help decide which songs we could do together. 

We looked at several songs to preform together: the songs we looked at together were - Hello by Adele, Yours by Ella Henderson, Go Easy on Me by Adele and Someone Like You by Adele. We listened to the tracks together to see which one would be more suitable for us both.

My LSA was present as well during this session and helped us to decide which song we would be preforming together. She made a good point about what the audience would probably favour, as she would be listening from the audience perspective. I decided that I would sit with my piano teacher and we could discuss which song would be the best for us to perform together, as I would be able to go through a little bit of each track to help me decide. 

Things that went well...

- I collaborated with Aimee and I managed to narrow down my song choices. This meant that I was able to go to my piano teacher with a smaller list of song suggestions. 

- I feel that the timing of my playing is getting better and better. I feel that I am finding it easier to stay in time during the song now. 

Things to Improve on...

- I need to spend some time focusing on the bridge of Someone You Loved. As I had been struggling with the transitions in this part of the song. I feel that focusing on this small section will make my performance run more smoothly. Having more practice of this small part will ensure that I have this part down perfectly which will make the song sound better overall. 

- I should now have Aimee with me during my rehearsal to sing one of the chosen songs (listed above) alongside me. I feel that having a singer with me will help me to improve my performance overall. Having a singer in with me during rehearsals will help to ensure that the song sounds good overall - it will also mean that we know our timings and the structure of the song properly. 

Further Progress...

- After I have spoken to my piano teacher about the list of songs, I can use their input to help me choose some for the performance 

- I could consider different songs to add to my repertoire for the performance. This would also help me to develop as a musician.
