I filled in for the pianist at choir last night... Huh? What's this choir I've talking about? You mean I haven't told you? Do think I could fill an entire post with questions??
In January I joined the Oakland/East Bay Gay Men's Chorus and it's been awesome. I've never sang in a men's choir before and I'm loving the sound we're getting. I joined really just for the social contact and the opportunity to get into the bay area regularly. To my surprise the group has a high musical quality as well. Who knew?
To get back to the topic of this post (I hate when you get me side tracked like that): I played piano for the chorus last night. The music isn't easy, especially with several songs that have the four part written on all different staves. I had enough warning that I could practice so I felt pretty good about the music going into it. I was a bit nervous going in, but after about 15 minutes I was soaring and loving every minute. It looks like I'll be playing for them in a small concert we have on March 12th since the regular pianist is unable to be there. It's fun to be getting back into my music again after a "dry spell" after the move.
