fionated7 · 20-06-2007 2:47pm

im hoping its queen

and sean nos for the irish music???

easiest options like

Marshy · 20-06-2007 3:17pm

I've tried this in two other threads but no-one seems to listen so I'll give it one more go.

One word...... TCHAIKERS!

Alanstrainor · 20-06-2007 3:21pm

anything but that Gerald Barry sh*te, and i'll be okay, my god i hate it.

Marshy · 20-06-2007 3:26pm

Everyone hates Barry but I quite like the piano quartet

Its kinda Psycho-esque. I love B1 and B2 in particular, tried playing them on the piano they're so good.

fionated7 · 20-06-2007 3:26pm

romeo and juliet would be a nice one...
barry is grand to answer on but the extract will hurt my ears!!

tbh the listening should be ok, write about what u hear and ul have to get some marks

justbringit89 · 20-06-2007 4:12pm

ya hopefully there mostly tick the boxes!!!! seems weird that there are tock the boxes at HL , but i suppose its just music

fionated7 · 20-06-2007 4:17pm

just remember to check the number of boxes to tick, cause if it says two and you tick three and one is wrong, your wrong answer will cancel out your right one

bebop! · 20-06-2007 4:18pm

Tomorrow in the irish essay section im hoping for Sean nos. the harping tradition, regional styles, the ceili band, irish dance tunes, group or fusion! I mean thats more than i covered for stair in irish and i still had a choice that day,, hopefully one will come up!!!

fionated7 · 20-06-2007 4:20pm

you have loads done, ul be fine!!!

pray for sean nos

btothei · 20-06-2007 4:41pm

hopefully queen in q1...its real easy i tink wit all the techniques etc

hopefully the essay will be sean nos, regional styles r account on the 3 main dances

ps is it possible for 2 minor key questions to come up in composing a melody in question 1 and 3?...have never done minor melodyies in skool and i dint want t hav t start 2mro!!

fionated7 · 20-06-2007 4:46pm

im not sure, iv never done q3, its q1 and q5 for me.

minor melodies are okay, no modulation or anything. jus run over your minor keys tonight and u should be fine

btothei · 20-06-2007 4:47pm

eh yeh...actually i wont bother goin over minors.....as long as ders 1 question in major out of the first three i shud b grand! mite look over em jst in case tho!"

justbringit89 · 20-06-2007 5:00pm

does everyone have3 hours between the melody and listening

fionated7 · 20-06-2007 5:05pm

i wish i hadve taken the listening elective though.
how is everyone spending their free 3 hrs?

bebop! · 20-06-2007 5:08pm

Our music teacher is going over everything with us! Especially good seeing as there's only like 5 of us.. so that should help loads

fionated7 · 20-06-2007 5:11pm

actually that could be an idea!!!
"searches for phone to txt music teacher"

remus808 · 20-06-2007 5:12pm

Funny you should say that, he also told us to text him for answers during the exam hehe

fionated7 · 20-06-2007 5:14pm

So true! Willy is my IDOL! I love that man!

fionated7 · 20-06-2007 5:22pm

why do i feel the urge to go change my cao to music as my first choice?

yurmothrintites · 20-06-2007 5:26pm

is this enough essays to learn....

Sean Nós
Fusions
Changes in tradition
Riverdance and Bill Whelan
Harp

Or do I need to do more like Changes outside tradition etc.

fionated7 · 20-06-2007 5:26pm

uve four more topics than i have learned! your sorted!!!

praying to every saint tonight that sean nós comes up!

sunflowerz · 20-06-2007 7:21pm

All i know is sean nos and the harp...not gonna waste my time learing any more seeing how its worth less then 3%, i think ill just go perfect the set works and hope 4 the best.....or i might just go to sleep now and then at least ill have the energy to actually sit up in the exam 2moro....ick?

anyone have any miracle cures for head colds.....dont think i could survive it if an icky section of barry came up as the long section 2moro. It's bad enough when u don't have a headache, like!

fionated7 · 20-06-2007 7:26pm

we'll all have headaches if barry comes up as the first question!!

id say go to bed now and let your body fight the head cold... i was really sick the night before irish paper two n the next morning i was magically better until i came home that evening n i was back to squareone.. funny how the body works
