Now that we have learnt to sing and dance at the same time, I need to apply all the skills that I have learnt to my audition.
I have decided to do a duet with Paris. We've decided that we are going to sing 'Bop to the top' by Sharpay and Ryan from 'High School Musical'.
We specifically chose this song because it's fun and cheesy and energectic, and it kind of reflects our personalities.
The purpose of this performance in the film is to act as an audition. Sharpay and Ryan are furious when they realise how good the new girl is at singing, and find out that she is entering the school musical with Wildcats popular Captain troy Bolton. Sharpay and Ryan are determined to perform at the school musical, and be the stars of the show. However they don't like the idea of other people wanting to perform at the show as they feel threatened by them. The song 'Bop to the Top' is their way of expressing how they feel, and their determination to reach the top and be the best.

Performing a Song
Now that we have learnt the words and have sang to 'All that Jazz', we have a feel to the song in terms of what the message is, and what genre it and how it makes us feel.
The message that I obtain from this song is seduction.-Sexy and classy. I think it makes you feel important because you are a female, and the woman's voice in the song can be coarse at times and very bold and imperative throughout the song.
Our task for the next few weeks is to get into small groups and choreograph sections of the song that our groups will sing. My group has been selected to choreograph the first verse of the song and in doing so combine the singing with the dancing.

All That Jazz
Throughout the weeks, our class has been rehearsing the song, 'All that Jazz' from the musical 'Chicago.'
It has been a challenge for me because, it has helped me understand how to read music sheets: In this song there is a main singer and then back up vocals whose lyrics are also on the music sheet, so it is important that when we are reharsing we are concentrating to sing the song correctly and get the full effect.
The last part of the song is the most confusing because all the vocals are fused together singing different lyrics at the same time, and it's hard to sing and know what lines you are singing without being distracted from all the other vocals.
