Well it's officially the most stressful time of the year for us who are both #cosoteachers and #cosomusicians. Here's my December so far:
1. Conducted my own students' choir concert last week.
2. Pianist for 5 choirs at a concert this week.
3. Rehearsal, dress rehearsal, and concert for the choir I sing with, also this week.
4. Performing additional concert with choir next week.
5. Performance with my students the week after that.

Thanks. This is kind of a normal December for me, except I got a sinus infection and lost my voice almost completely last week. Currently on antibiotics and steroids hoping my voice is back for this weekend's rehearsal and concert.

I feel for you. Was in a choir and Lead Alto for many years. December I was back up for church services, weddings and on call for funerals, etc because the regulars were too busy. Hope your energy remains high, your voice and timbre remain smooth and your enthusiasm and joy shared with all through your music!
@voltronic My ex was a music teacher and choirmaster so I know how busy your life is atm, but you touch so many lives through music in a positive way. Thanks.
@voltronic Whoowhee!! That is an impressive list. Take care of yourself and stay hydrated.
