Tonight, we had dress rehearsal for our concert this coming Saturday. Dress rehearsals are always a point of anxiety for most of us. Are we ready? Do we have the notes? Do we have the music memorized? Are we comfortable enough with the non-memorized pieces to look up and watch Georgina for guidance in ambiance and the intricacies of the music? I'm always a little nervous pre-dress rehearsal that the concert will be a disaster and I'll regret inviting everyone I know.
But dress rehearsal always works out the nerves and the kinks and eases our worries. We're always ready. Because we're a high caliber group, and we're all passionate about music and performing to the highest of our abilities.
I love being a part of Consonare. I was told in college to treasure the time I had with Chamber Choir because I would never again sing in a truly great choir again. Well, that was before Georgina (a former WU Chamber Choir alumn) created Consonare and showed Dr. Long that truly great choirs do exist outside of college. I love music, I love singing, and I love being a part of such an amazing group of musicians and people.
So thankful I took a risk last December and auditioned. I'm so thankful I got in! I'm so thankful I get to share my passion with like-minded and equally talented musicians once a week, 9 months out of the year! :-D
