Okay, so it's been a long time since I posted. I've been way busy. More later.

Who's going to OVFF this weekend? I'm looking forward to seeing lots of friends there.

Steve and I went to see the Flanders Recorder Quartet perform at Capital University tonight. They were phenomenal. I had no idea one could make such an amazing array of sounds with the recorder. And the 2.3-meter-tall great bass recorder was incredible. It was a marvelous concert, and if you ever get a chance to hear them perform, I highly ( Read more... )

Steve and I went to see the Trans-Siberian Orchestra in concert today. It was sort of a last minute thing; I got a call on Wednesday from a friend at work asking if I was still interested in her two extra tickets to the show. Neither Steve nor I had been to see TSO before and were very much interested in going ( Read more... )

Concert this Sunday at 4pm at Whetstone High School!

Once again I will be singing in the Clintonville Community Choir.

Unfortunately I may need to take the next two seasons off for wedding planning, so this is your chance to come hear me sing! I've been working really hard on Fa Una Canzona, and trust me, it's darn hard to memorize lyrics to ( Read more... )

I have a concert coming up! I will be singing in the Clintonville Community Choir on Sunday, December 7th at 4pm at Whetstone High School. We are performing once again with the Clintonville Community Band.

Now I need to go practice...

I was so busy, I forgot to post about the choir concert tonight! It was part of the Sunday concert series at the Park of Roses, a joint concert with the Clintonville Community Band. Except that we had thunderstorms and lots of rain, so the concert got moved into the shelter house. Still, the concert was good, and much fun was had by all. I was ( Read more... )

For the music lovers in the audience, the "Great Performers" series documentary on Toscanini is posted to YouTube. Part 1 is linked; you should be able to find your way to parts 2-8. I'm embarrassed at how little I knew about him...

The musicians of the Columbus Symphony, who are out of work now that the board has shut down the orchestra for the summer, are organizing a series of concerts on their own ( Read more... )

They announced last night that the Columbus Symphony has canceled the summer Pops concert series. There might not be a classical season in the fall, either, but that hasn't been decided yet. This is incredibly sad ( Read more... )

Here's a question for the group. I just saw a post that reminded me of a conversation at choir a few weeks back. When we socialize, people often talk about other performance groups they've been in (other choirs, theater, etc.). I mentioned something about one of the musicals I was in during college, and someone asked if I was a theater major ( Read more... )
