what is the piece you have chosen for your initial assessment?
The piece I have chosen for my initial assessment is Coco Jambo by Mr President.
why did you choose this piece?
The piece I have chosen for my initial assessment is Coco Jambo by Mr President. I have chosen this piece because it is a famous and iconic piece and I love the genre of the piece. furthermore, I’ve chosen this piece because the chords of the piece are easy and they are Am, F, G and Am again just those 3 chords repeated.
what was successful about your performance and why?
The thing that was successful about my performance is that the chords of the piece are easy and the piece was a great choice as it is an iconic piece. Another thing that was successful about my performance is that the style of the song is Euro reggae and I’ve created that style on stylecreator on my keyboard and that was successful as it sounded just like the original piece.
What wasn’t successful about your performance and why?
the thing that wasn’t successful about my performance is that the flute used for the solo was a flute that I didn’t have in my keyboard so I had to use the flute I had in my keyboard and edit the touch response the chorus and the reverb but it took a lot of time and a lot of tries because I wanted it to sound just like the original piece.
what could you improve in the future and why?
what I could improve in the future is to find some time and make some time for recording and work for college when not in college [at home]. Another thing that I would improve is the timing of chords because I am originally a drummer not a keyboard player.
