Saturday SCO Combined Practice
To people who are involved in the SCO performance,there will be a combined practice with MJC & AJC choirs, at Siglap South CC at 9am.
Although practice starts at 9.30am, we've to be there earlier to do warmups. Be there after 9.10am, and you'll be fined. I'm serious. (To avoid bad impressions since we tend to be the latest ones)
And I really hope you take this particular practice seriously.
