Rehearsal - Day 3 and performance

Wednesday morning was the start of the big day. Last rehearsal and performance time. The rehearsal went well, and then off home for NAP O'CLOCK. I found a new talent of mine that I think could become a scientific study....Nap-ology. I was dubbed the nap-ologist by a colleague. Napping is a happy thing! 

The road to the performance seemed a long one. The nap didn't last as long as I would've liked, and I didn't want to study too much other music, as I could get too confused. SO I read and watched llamas some more and listened to the fog horn then got ready for the concert.

All went well with "Pulicinella" so Joseph and I went out to have a glass of wine and listen and watch the "El Amor Bruja". In line for wine we were able to meet several of the patrons and had some great conversations. One was with a gentleman who has been at the rehearsal the day prior to the performance. He had several questions to ask me about the voice, singing, preparation and he even seemed a little nervous. At the performance, he was glowing and went on about how much he loved it. He then said a very sweet thing to me. "I know I probably shouldn't say this, but the moment you opened your mouth and sang, I fell a little in love with you. Who knew that simply the human voice could do that?" Well, that's why I am in this business, to connect with people, on and off stage. 

This was an extremely satisfying experience!
