Musics

Hey everyone. Its Zaimi. Im going to talk about the music in Maktab Sains. As you know, they are many music groups in Maktab Sains such as the choirs and the school band. For this post, I'm going to talk about the school band.

The School Band was established in May 2007. I am one of the first to join them.it started with 20 members. All of us were given instruments. They let us borrowed it and we can take it home. However, if we lost or damaged or quit the band, we must return it to the teachers in charge. My instrument is the biggest. In September, we finally perform the first concert ever. But its not for public, its only open for parents. Late 2007, we combined with the Maktab SOAS band and perform an opening and closing ceremony for the International Sports Competition.

In 2008, the band members increased to 35 but unfortunately many of us got in the express class, so they have to quit the band. But some of them still in the band. They just come whenever they have time. We don't have much activities this year because we spend our time studying. Even though we studied, we still have our second concert but its still for parents. They are awards given for the member. I was given the title The Best Student in the school band. We also perform for the annual Sports Day and its for the public. We also combined with the Maktab SOAS and the Army Cadets Band for the closing ceremony for the International Sports Competition.

Then, in early 2009, we performed a concert to attract the juniors to join the school band. There were many good news from them. 23 February which is the National Day, we were supposed to march. We rehearsed before but when its the full rehearsal, they said we don't even contribute with the army band so we're not performing. Late 2009, we got 25 members. We combined with Maktab SOAS band and performed with them at the Islamic Conference Center in front of His Majesty The Sultan Of Brunei Darussalam.

In 2010, we only perform for the Annual Sports Day even though most of us are participating for it. However, i think this will be the best year for the school band because they are new instruments for us and i currently take two instruments and this time, its bigger than before.

The reason why I want to tell you about Music is because Music is our life. Without music, we are nothing but a silent world. It inspired us to have wonderful life.

I think thats all. As Azlan say, just keep in touch, we will post pictures and videos.
