Long time, no blog!

Well I have finally found a little bit of time to actually sit down and blog again! Just like any other musician, Christmas gets to be the busiest time of year! I have been doing a lot of singing and a lot of concerts. Some went better then others! This advent I sang with Ottawa Choral Society's Christmas concert which wasn't the best concert ever, but lets not re-live that. I also sang in the 13 Strings Christmas concert with 17 Voyces as soloist and ringer for the choir. This was a great concert, conducted by Nathan Brock (Young assistant conductor of MSO). We performed Purcell's Te Deum and Jubilate, Some Ralph Vaughan Williams, and Finzi.

The good thing is, I finally started a little a capella group a la King's Singers. I think the name being tossed around at the moment was King Ringers or was it the Bling Singers. Oh well great fun! We sang carols before the Midnight service, which I think was a successful start. Hopefully we can keep going with regular rehearsals and get some fun stuff in the repertoire. A little Billy Joel, a little Beatles, a little Tallis, and everything in between. I'll keep you all posted.

Christmas services were excellent at the Cathedral over the past few days. But because of that it made me miss Truro all that much more. But I do still have contact with many of the people thanks to the beauty of technology.

So now it's time to start working on the repertoire again and get things together for an audition for the New Discoveries Program. Hopefully should lead to more solo work if I do well enough.

Let the fun begin.
