A great weekend
The concerts went off really well - those of my readers who made it will understand what I mean. Those who didn't ... well, you missed out on an amazing musical experience. Not only were there lots of people at both concerts but we also sang really well, particularly in the Poulenc. After Sunday's concert I felt extraordinarily emotional, something I rarely experience when I sing, but something which it should be all about.
It was a case of a job well done: we had worked very hard on Figure humaine for a longer than usual rehearsal period; everyone gave their all. The results of the hard work showed on Friday and Sunday.
Sunday morning was a little diversion with Wachet! betet! betet! wachet! at St John's - it also was an amazing piece. The bass recit (sung by Jerzy K) was extraordinary with the trumpet playing a chorale tune over the top of the accompanied recit in a different key.
Back to work today as if nothing had happened.
