Singing

Over the last 4 weeks we have rehearsed 8 songs.
1. Sway
2. It don't mean a thing (ain't got that swing)
3. Wouldn't it be lovely
4. Got you under my skin
5. Can't help loving that man of mine
6. Sunny side of the street
7. Somewhere
8. We'll meet again

We all had assigned songs, so some of us worked in groups, some did solos and duets and we also done a few songs as a whole class. A few people in the class also got the role of choreographing a dance routine for each song. I was one of the few people, and I found it quite easy coming up with a routine and remembering the lyrics. I think at times the class as a whole lost focus in rehearsals but on our performance day we performed the show very well. We was asked to sing two more songs at the end. I'm not a singer and I found it quite embarrassing to sing infront of people but when you see the elderly people singing along in the audience it makes it all worth it. I enjoyed the show very much however at times I felt like the rehearsals were a bit boring and I lost focus and ocassionally distracted others. I now know in rehearsals to keep my focus and work a lot harder than what I had done.
