Warming up

It was warmer today - I managed to get a load of washing done and dried. Didn't do much else except for finishing off Geoff H's second Sibelius program.

Gloriana dress rehearsal tonight: it was fun having the sackbuts there, they certainly make a great noise. I'm glad we're doing the concert in the order we are as the modern works are much more taxing; doing the early music first helps me warm up my voice better. Though doing the Bax last (which makes perfect sense) means we do have to pace ourselves through the second half.

I fear young BO is doing too much at the moment, his voice is sounding a little tired - and he looks tired as well.
