How is my understanding now about improvisation especially in blues?
I understand that improvising in blues is very fun. I really like how the rhythm play and the notes sounds. I also know that blues is not that difficult to play because its quite simple, but still it depends in the composition.
I think i've improved quite good in instrument class because i learn so much more every day. Although Mr Hary keeps telling me to practice over and over again, i think i've done good because i've give my best. i'm also quite familiar with the flute and blues. I hope my skills improve so much more and i could play the flute like Mr Hary

Reflection Week 8 (March 5-9,2012)
In the instrument class I practice the 12 bars again. This time i record him while he was playing my composition so that i could see it when i need some correction at home. Then as usual the whole class play some scales and speed.
Reflection Week 7 (27 Feb- 2 March, 2012)
How did I practice and apply my 12 bars blues at home?
I practice at home using the scales. The first step for me to practice is first I warm up then play the scales then I try to play the notes. If it's sounds weird. I will play the bars from the finale to give me some idea how i should've sound
In the instrument class, Mr Hary check my progress in the 12 bars. he said that i still have to improve my scales skill and my speed in playing flute.

Challenges working on my 12 bars blues finale task?
The challenges are figuring out the notes for every bar and making it swing. Then using the syncopation too, i'm still so confused about it. I got a lot of help from Mr Hary, he help me along the way from the very first process. He know what note that i should put because he really know my ability
In instrument class we first play some scales for warming up. Then Mr Hary ask us if there's anything that we want him to fix or to show. I asked for his help in playing the right scales and following the tempo. After he helped me, i have some idea on playing it better.

How is my understanding of blues and applying 12 bars blues?
I began to understand blues a little bit but i didnt quite understand it much. i've done the 12 bars blues and from it i know that blues use C7,F7 and G7 for the scale
In instrument class i got some help from Mr Hary for the 12 bars blues. he help me make it and try to make the composition suitable with my skills.

How do you understand the learning of Jazz through your assesment tasks done 'till now?
I learnt that Jazz is very beautiful. The way the music play, the way we sing it. Jazz is really interesting as far as i've known. before i know Jazz until the inside of it, I think Jazz is not interesting or attractive in any way. I think its just a piece of music that has different notes similar to Pop and the others. But when i leant now, i've played it, i cant see that jazz is wonderful in a beautiful way.
in the instrument class i prepare for the singing assessment. Mr Hary just basically check my voice so it can measure how high must the instrument be. i'm going to sing What A Wonderful World in 0

Reflection Week 3 ( Jan 30 -February 3, 2012)
how did I do my essay and how did it affect me when learning and applying Jazz?
I learnt much more from that essay so i dont keep wondering where does jazz come from and why its called Jazz. I've done so many research for the essay so i know couple of things. But i actually get the resources from the handouts that the teacher gave me.
In the instrument class i play the F scale again. We just played it as usual because Mr Hary is still not satisfied with our ability in playing flute so he wants to see more progress from us. I definitely should have more time to practice my flute skills

Reflection Week 2 (Jan 23-27, 2012)
How's my progress in learning the note of Jazz?
I still have to learn more about it because sometimes I'm still confused. But I have learn the symbols, so I know better and it would help me a lot.
Today the topic that i learnt in instrument class is F major scale. Me and my friends play the F scale to practice our speed and skill in playing flute. I'm not as fast as the others because i rarely practice at home. So i should work on that..

How Did you find the topic of Jazz and how did the teacher do it?
I find the topic from the internet. I think it's very interesting. To show us what Jazz is like, the teacher plays some instruments. They also improvise to show us that jazz needs improvisation too to make it more colorful.
The topic that we learnt in instrument class is the song called When The Saint Go Marching In. Mr Hary ask us to play that song. It's very hard for me because I didnt have any preparation and the song is quite fast. With some practice and a little speed, i think i could do it.
