the Point is...

Well, two consecutive rehearsals for the Mozart Mass in C Minor has left me croaky, so like the rest of the choir, I shant speak all day tomorrow, as the concert is in the evening...
This concert is hot on the heels of Carmina Burana, and is a challenge to everyone. However, our Audience Of One was extremely appreciative of our efforts. I know the actual concert is sold out.



 It would be lovely if we could all take a turn to hear ourselves sing, for the expression on some of our conductors faces, when they like the sound we produce, is lovely to see. If only we could hear what they hear!

I took a few snaps while we were getting ready to rehearse, and was most surprised at the results. While being in the choir is a lovely, friendly experience (among other things), now I see the photos, we look like a very bossy lot indeed... There's definitely a Pointing Thing going on...




This (above) is my favourite, that's a very long Point, full of conviction...

I don't know WHAT Stephen must have done, but he's clearly not taking his telling off very seriously, for here is Hilary not only Pointing, but wagging her finger at him. tut tut! Either that or she's very helpfully giving him the beats in the bar...
