It’s been a while since I posted anything regarding my year of the woo woo. So, I thought I’d share a recent one.
I haven’t been able to go to my choir rehearsals since rehearsals for Burn started. The plan was that I would continue to work on the songs and try to get them memorized on my own.
It was a bit more difficult to get my Burn lines learned than I expected. And I was considering not singing at the Vocal Point concert next weekend.
I can’t make the first concert because it’s on at the same time as my play. But I should be able to be there for the second concert because it’s in the afternoon and my play is in the evening.
But…
Our choir director wants us to sing the songs without the music. And there’s no way that I can get to that stage.
So, I was thinking of showing up and being supportive. But not singing. It wouldn’t be a good look if I was the only person with their music.
I’d been thinking about that for a couple of days.
After rehearsal on Tuesday, I drove down a street that I don’t usually drive down.
And I thought: Derek lives on this street. I wonder how he’s doing?
Derek is in the choir. He’s my section (Bass) leader.
A moment after I had that thought, I noticed someone walking down the street.
Derek.
What the heck??
I pulled over and chatted with him.
I mentioned that I didn’t have my songs learned. And that I was thinking of not singing because I would have to use my music.
He said that he was going to be using his music. And so were a bunch of the others.
Which I took as a sign to get in there and sing!
With my music! Thank you, Universe!
