Me in Concert

Last month I auditioned for the Cleveland Symphony Orchestra chorus, and although they didn't pick me for their limited openings, I did get into the Blossom Festival Chorus.

Surprisingly, I don't find myself unhappy about it. I've gotten used to not having my evenings booked with choir rehearsals year 'round. I had a moment of panic after auditioning about whether I really wanted to commit to something so time consuming.

So if you want to hear me, I'll be singing:

Sunday, July 31, 2005 at 7:00 PM at Blossom
Prokofiev: Alexander Nevsky

AND

Saturday, July 30, 2005 at 8:30 PM Blossom
Holst: The Planets (featuring NASA videos) (last movement features women's voices)
Lawrence Krauss, narrator

In the fall, I'll likely be making my dance debut with MaDaCol. A bunch of the folks in the office are into MaDaCol and after their last concert at Cold Stone Creamery -- while very high on ice cream -- I kinda agreed to join the gang.

So it seems that I may have kicked the choral addition that held me in it's thrall for so long. Perhaps in a future post I shall ruminate on that.
