THe Musical Director’s view.

❤️The Choral Director is both a position of privilege and responsibility.

The world we knew how to produce choirs in is gone. What was a compact sound bubble, a cocoon for each section in the choirs we all knew for all our lives is now not so. The silence and the isolation vocally were so genuine a struggle for every choir member the world over.

Thank God we have resumed singing again in a safe environment. At our rehearsals, Thank God all of our choir have survived the silence.

Update on my medicine change…

~bpdgirl39~'s avatar~thebpdgirl39~

So about a week ago I went back on my seraqole. I’m starting to feel my normal self again. I’m really not for change so I am not going to be changing my medicine again soon.

Have a good day

Heather
