Evaluation

I think something that worked really well and came across to an audience was our connection with each other. Onstage our chemistry was good which had a positive affect onto the audience as it enabled them to relax and enjoy the performer. I think this connecting with the audience was definitely a personal strength as even though I was playing piano I still managed to look up by picking moments in the song where I can do this. I think another strength for the group was that the delivery of the comedy. I know this was successful from the reaction from the audience which shows me that the humor was clearly portrayed as we received the desired effect of laughter.

I think maybe to improve next time the first thing we could've done differently is instead of choosing two similar songs choosing contrasting ones, so choosing a slow ballad next to our comedic Musical Theatre piece just to give it a little more variety. I think something else that could have been improved was that it should've been better rehearsed as it wasn't as polished as it should've been which can make the pieces seem unprofessional to a paying audience. For example if it'd had been polished the harmonies would've been tighter and our voices completely blended. I also think in Well did you Evah, had we had tie, we could have added a few more harmonies. The main improvement though for me personally was to make the piano part more advanced. I think a lot of the time the pieces sounded empty due to us just relying on vocals and pianos which can sometimes be a bit disengaging which is why I should've added melodic patterns to fill it out a bit more so it had a fuller and more interesting layered texture.
