God 8 pieces is an awful lot! I have a violin, but i can't play it properly :P
I probably will do sightreading, after doing piano exams it shouldn't be too bad
is that what you'll do?
Ya Im defo doing the sight reading!! Its so much easier! I have decided on some pieces too, and im going to do 6 violin ones!! :L :L
I do music outside school, so we have all set works, composing 16 bar melody (< all except in a minor yet) and some practice on melody and bassline.. Next year we are doing irish music, essays and more composing!! Ill e just focusing on practical though!! :L
Do ye know of anyone doing 50% composing? I always thought it would be cool to do that but practical is less risky!! :L
@gfgfgf14 - Bring him home les mis? I got the part of Thernadier in the youth Les mis musical but I couldnt do it because of work and all... 
My violin pieces so far are
1) Chanson de matin ( elgar- easy enough piece to settle me in)
2) Danse Macabre (Saint Saens)
3) Schindlers List (John Williams)
4) Four Seasons (vivaldi - either spring 1, summer 1 or winter 1)
5) Air on a g string (Bach)
6) Not certain yet.. (possibly bolero by Hubay) << Any suggestions?? 0 -
I'm in a bit of a situation. My construction teacher is absolutely useless! We have to make our own notes
. I really want to do well in this subject but its not looking likely now 
If anybody knows were I could get good notes I would really appreciate it
Thanks.0 -

anybody?
What exactly are you looking for?
There's a lot of choice in the construction paper, download the marking schemes and make your notes around the answers, I remember question 6 was the same almost every year.
If you know your drawings question 1 is fine, and the U values is a guaranteed qustion. So that's 3, and you only have to answer 5!0 -

Right guys..I've a problem!
I suffer big time from tonsillitis 3-4 times a year..Was at a specialist about getting them out and he said next time I have it to ring him..Next time being now, the day I go back to school! I don't know whether to get them out or hold on until after the LC as I've to do last year & this years work, and I don't want to be missing 2 weeks of school. What do ye think I should do?? 0 -

Oh man thats really coincidental! We were tlakingbout that today in biology and how doctors are trying to stop taking out peoples tonsils unless they are a recurring symptom as they help prevent other infections etc... but if you are anxious about them, Id say get them out.. It is only the first few months of LC.. Even just wait til Hallowe'en or New years and be off school to get them done!!
@ThatHandsomeDevil.... I think that piece would be more of a Junior Cert Practical standard.... :L0 -

great book....I'd recommend buying it even if your not doing these exact comparatives...I'm doing Sive instead of how many miles to babylon and this is the best book I bought last year......great poetry notes too!0 -

What is Music Tech exactly? I do music outside school so I have no choice in options like that.. ?
Anyone doing "The Kite Runner", "Lamb", "I'm not Scared"<-(Italian Film - "Io non Ho Paura") for their comparitives?? Anyone doing any of the above?? :? 0 -

It's just copying sheet music into some music software called Sibelius......As in you type the note and press a number to pick the note value............a monkey could do it.......... 0 -

Im buying the study guie online for it because i just did not like it! :L:(It's just copying sheet music into some music software called Sibelius......As in you type the note and press a number to pick the note value............a monkey could do it..........
Really?? :O That sounds easier than playing pieces!!!! Id so do that instead! :L I have used music software too! :L But im gonna stick with my pieces.. Which is your favourite set work#/ :pac:0 -
I thought it was ok, usually don't like whatever book is picked by the school but it turned out better than I thought. We have some orange book with a few notes on it, but we only really finished it a few days before the Summer Holidays so we haven't really got the analysis bits done yet...though sometimes our teacher just leaves that bit up to us, which is ok until I see all the notes some people have on things that I have less than an A4 page for!
I haven't seen the film yet, I'll put that on the to-do list!0 -
