One! Two! Three!

Lotta singing this week.

On Wednesday, dress rehearsal time. FCC (men's chorus, including Beast) and Mosaic (mixed chorus, including both of us) performed their two (each) competition numbers to a quite sizeable audience of interested friends. It went well—I think the members of our respective choruses who watched Mosaic were quite impressed.

Thursday was a NH rehearsal, this time at a church in Upton. We practised there so that we knew the ground, or more properly, the air, ready for

Saturday, when we did a concert to raise money for the church. NH did most of the work, including solo/duet/quartet items by members of chorus, but Mosaic also had the chance to perform our two numbers, which sounded fabulous in the church. Singing in churches is *good*.

And it gave me the chance to take a look at another bit of Norfolk, surprisingly easy to find, as one of the roads leading off the roundabout at the top of our hill goes all the way to Upton, at which point we turn left for the church. Apparently the village has a community-run pub.

I unearthed a sewing project recently for some reason I cannot recall, and having finished the knitting of the winter cardi, and produced a phone pouch so that this phone does not have to sit precariously in my back pocket, I think I can now re-engage with it. It's a sweatshirt with floral embellishments.

That is a lot of singing. Hope you both enjoyed it.

Good luck with your new project.

The singing is fun, but takes up perhaps more of my time than I entirely want it to! I used to feel like this during the week of a show we were performing, so I expect I'll miss it when it's done.

Yay for good acoustics, and for pretty sewing!

[pensnest]

Yes indeed!

Sounds like you'd a great week with all that singing.

I didn't know you sewed too. I hope the phone pouch will work as intendend so there will be no more liquied-related accidents!

The pouch is working quite well so far. Ideally I think I'd want one made of leather so it was stiff, that I could hang from my belt loops, but that seems unlikely.

The culmination of it all - well, the non-NH part - is this weekend!

That does sound like a lot of singing - glad to hear that all went well and the acoustics were on your side!
