How have you demonstrated them? Independent learning of parts: I have demonstrated this skill with or song wave. I had to learn the chord in such short time.  Reliability in rehearsals: I demonstrated this skill by knowing chords on piano to all the songs we rehearsals. Which are: the thrill is gone, waves, and rock with you.  Attendance to all sessions: I demonstrated this skill by being in every rehearsal that I been to. Communication with band members: I demonstrated by always keeping an eye contact with everyone in my band. Musical communication with band members: we demonstrated this skill by telling people what they’re Going to do in the performance. Leadership: I demonstrated by the drummer that were all ready.
How effective were they in the overall project (process and performance)? These skills were very effective in our performance if it was for communication I wouldn’t have known when to stop. Attenuating to all rehearsal was very impotent cause I missed on rehearsal i would not know what to do.
Which characteristics do you think you need to develop and why? Engagement with the audience the reason why I say I need to work on this is because in the performance I was a little nervous to say anything to the audience.

Rehearsal techniques

sorry you cant see me hopefully u can hear me

what change i can make to look after my health

First thing i would change to maintain my health is to eat health stuff like: vegetable, fruit, less fat stuff and milk but not not to much of it. i would also try ride a bike for often and maybe to college or walk to college. and ill try not to use the bus more often. ill do activity like basketball or football. i can do a few exercise at less 5 times a day which includes: sit up, push up, running in parks and all that stuff. i will try do these stuff everyday to insure i can preform my best as a musician. To keep my ear in working condition for a musician I shouldn't listen to music on max volum. If I keep listening to music on max I will getting a something called tinnitus. If I get this as a musician I will find it hard to listen or preform music.
