Last night we had our first choir rehearsal since our Christmas break. It was so fun to be singing again! We are starting a new piece by Gerald Finzi called Lo, the Full, Final Sacrifice. It is 30 pages long and takes almost 20 minutes to sing! Good thing we have until April before our next performance.
We also got to hear the U of U Singers perform a short program last night. Cameron, our director, is a member of the choir and they were singing at a high school invitational workshop at Libby Gardner Hall last night. We had our rehearsal up at the School of Music so we could sneak in and listen to them. It was really fun! I wish we were that good! But it was fun to hear a very good choir and realize that we have LOTS of room for improvement :)
Tonight I think we are heading up to the cabin.... depending on Sean's work schedule. They have had some deadlines to meet, so he's been working long hours this week. He worked close to 14 hours yesterday. Hopefully he will get done early today so we can play up in Heber! I love going up there on snowy days. My baby sister Annette is in town too, so I'll probably have a sisters night this weekend! YES!

So I must have missed it, but what choir are you in? That's great you have kept on singing!
It is called the Utah Master Chorale. It's a community choir and we perform in Davis and Salt Lake counties. This is my second year with the choir and it's been SOO fun!
