I got put on the spot at choir rehearsal tonight. Our actual conductor was occupied at the moment, and I was asked by our accompanist to conduct a piece I had only ever sung before, with no prep. It was literally, hey can you come up and conduct this? Oh, and can you sing the opening solo for us now that you're up there?
I didn't make a complete ass of myself, and the choir was super attentive and kind, so I'll take that as a win.
