okay, time to rest my flute fingers for awhile.

If anything, IB forced their sound somewhat too aggressively, perhaps to compensate for size? This could be cured in 10 seconds.
This by no means makes you lesser musicians than those who got GWH. The high calibre of ACS IB musicians is proven by the commendable way you kept the suicidal challenging Star Wars score afloat. Also, it takes a solid musician to hold one part independently with no support.
Personally, I’d rather be a superior musician with COP than a mediocre musician with GWH. Dr. Zechariah Goh’s is a truly special leader, as one of the few Singapore compsoers who has attained international renown.
Finally, never forget that we are ACS. Our tradition is too great to be defined by any transient & summary verdict. Today, you inspired me again with your courage and musicianship.
