Concerts

 This town has so much great musical talent.  P and I got to sing in the stake choir.  There were 2 two hour rehearsals that were very demanding.  

We went to a rehearsal of the Notre Dame choir from France.  They were singing in the First Baptist Church which has an incredible stained glass wall in the sanctuary.  The combination of visual and auditory beauty fed my soul.

Tonight we went to a concert to hear lP's oboe teacher play with the youth orchestra.  LP's friend from school plays bassoon in the 2nd orchestra.  It was so nice.  The top orchestra accompanied the oboe concerto and also played Festive Overture.

This week both of the girls will have performances.  It is intense and beautiful.

I am practicing the baritone to play for the Stake Christmas Orchestra.  That's right.  Our stake and the Huntsville stake put on a Choral and Orchestral presentation.  Nice!  P bought us a nice gig bag for the baritone.  Feeling fancy.

Tonight lP was practicing her oboe in her room.  I was practicing the baritone in the garage.  M was out in the shed practicing her horn.  Pretty awesome.
