First Gloriana rehearsal last night -- quite a challenging year coming up with some wonderful music to be sung. The first concert is of English works, including some great Tudor works, the Britten Hymn to St Cecilia and a first Australian performance of the Edinburgh Mass by Gabriel Jackson. It was good to be starting a long rehearsal period, not just a "let's put on a show" like the most recent gigs have been (not that there's anything wrong with that, I really enjoy throwing something together quickly, but I also like a reasonable preparation time as well -- though you can overdo it).

Still haven't done my German homework, mainly because I haven't bought the workbook yet -- this week it'll probably be a last minute rush.
