Cello/Bass Notices

Hello all!

Here's another long winded post from me again...
Cello/bass practices will go on as per normal next Monday the practice times are as follows

• 6.30 to 8.30 for Juniors, and
• 8.30 to 9.30 for seniors/those who have experience

* experienced members need not attend the 6.30 session. But if you want to, go ahead!

Should you wish to have your own self practice, the Chinese orchestra is open everyday on weekdays from 6 PM onwards! But do avoid Wednesdays and Thursdays , as you will most probably end up practising in the corridor due to the shortage of rooms.

FRET NOT!!!

The best times for your own self practice are,

Tuesdays, Fridays and Saturdays (mornings, check out with the President and vice presidents for more info)

Once again, Thank you very much for your kind attention and please remember to check out this blog for your regular updates! :)
