busyWe also spent some time working with a sight reading and ear training tool called Soft Mozart. I'll write more about this next week.
Due to heavy traffic yesterday evening, I arrived at our performance a couple of minutes before it started. In fact, I was just taking off my coat and getting my music together when the director called for everyone to stand in place. I thought we were just going to warm up a bit (the start time had been scheduled for a half hour after I arrived), so I was surprised when we actually started performing! So when it came time for my duet, I wasn't quite settled. I almost made a couple of mistakes and I may have sped up a bit, because while I was singing I heard the director (who was playing the piano which was to the left of me) imitating a snare drum to keep time. After the performance I went to talk to the 102 year old guy who I met the last time we performed there, but I don't think he remembered me.
