I keep being remembered of Tha Goode Olde Tymes.
Long long ago in a land far far away (*sobs*) there was a girl.
Me again.
And I used to sing in a choir that was some sort of challenge.
At that time I didn't know how to use my voice, but we had a charismatic conductor and i learnt a lot.
The music wasn't just lots of sing-along-songs, but real music, mighty and strong.
*sniff*
I've been in a lot of choirs. Good ones, bad ones.

At the moment I am singing together with a bunch of midle-aged women who (to my complete astonishment) do have voices, but unfortunately they are not able to hit the notes. Hm. Not so satisfying.
And the conductor made me sing a c'''.
I hate him for that. I don't sing a lot and I believe, I shouldn't sing more than g'' or maybe a''. It hurts. And - besides that - it doesn't sound like singing any more. Don't understand what benefits it has to hear me squeak....
I also hate him for being too soft with all the chatters and for doing the "warm-up" much too quickly and for counting 1,2,3,4, have a break and make the choir start singing a few seconds afterwards.

But a good choir needs time. Rehearsals. Training at home.
I wonder if I'll ever find the time to sing in a better choir once again. :-(
