A Chilly Evening Breeze

Credo tonight was a success!

In fact, everything this evening was great! The evening breeze was chilly, but I gave thanks. So I took a stroll along the river near my rehearsal venue. It was lovely. Somehow the river at night reminds me of the scene from Sen to Chihiro no Kamikakushi (Spirited Away) where Chihiro was first stranded by the river at night in the other world. Alone by the river, I started talking to the Chihiro in my head. And the Chihiro tonight replied to me in German. Lol.

So! Herr Lim mentioned about next year's upcoming projects - after the Debussy Nocturnes and Beethoven's Missa Solemnis, there's word that we might be performing Haydn's The Creation (o_O = Zzzzzz...), Brahms' Ein Deutsches Requiem (Yaaaaaaaay!) and one other modern work which I didn't quite catch. Cool! Can't wait for next year already!

I'll say it again - Credo is a success. Herr Lim was very impressed with us (probably because he threatened to test us individually on ou parts last week, lol) and was a complete joker tonight. However, we aren't going to move on to Sanctus yet - he wanna polish up on Credo (and meanwhile enjoyably torture us sopranos) next week. Yep.
