FaithManor Posted November 30, 2012 Share Posted November 30, 2012 Big exhale...big, giant, huge exhale. No, I did not memorize "from scratch" a concerto in three weeks. However, I did ressurect one I hadn't played since I was 26 and I'm now 44. So, I think that counts as hard work. Of course, next week I have some rehearsals with the "orchestra" and that's going to be.....hmmmm....not easy. As it turns out, my accompaniment is a symphonic band of talented youth. Unfortunately, they've never done a work of this size and difficulty before. However, I'm pleased for them that they are getting this opportunity and we'll make the most of it. That's okay. It's a benefit dinner in a podunk, back-hole of Michigan. People will be fine. I do think that between now and then, I may have to take a hiatus from making those lacey fabric flowers that have to be held over a candle. I have a sore finger now! Anyway, no need for response. I just needed to let that out and relax. Faith Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FaithManor Posted November 30, 2012 Author Share Posted November 30, 2012 Good job Faith! Post it on YouTube for us??? :) Well, I would, but I don't think I'll have permission from the director. They generally control that. However, if he puts it out there, I'll post a link. The performance isn't for a while yet. Thanks everyone.
