As many of you know, I studied music before going to medical school. Within music, choral music has always been my focus and greatest joy. So, it’s especially meaningful that I have the opportunity to lead and make wonderful music with The Longwood Chorus
Ayyyyy! A fellow choir nerd! ❤️ Just another reason to admire you!
I'm so, so happy for you that you get to sing this season. There's nothing like a choir. The program looks great-- I really love the Britten. I'm going to tune in-- break a leg!
I have a Music Ed degree and singing in and conducting choirs and teaching voice has been such a huge part of my life. If you The Broadway Singers Mask is wonderful if you're looking for a great singing mask, though it looks a little doofy. It really provides the space to resonate... but yeah, I hate how masks make it hard to see vowel shapes.
Do you guys run CR boxes in rehearsals? I won't sing without a few of them peppered throughout our small rehearsal space. My Aranet was reading over 5000 (!!!) so I knew I had to do something.
This just made me smile! Incredible! Love it! I will be there in spirit and will be watching it live stream this evening! As a little girl I grew up singing in the church choir! Loved every second of it! Would love to sing with you all if I wasn’t in Southern California! I grew up in a musical family. Several of my uncle’s all play several musical instruments and sing. Always a joyful occasion for any family gathering! Music has always been my heart! ❤️
Well Dr Faust, of course, medically safe Choir practice. UCSF's Dr. LAURA J. ESSERMAN was a Pre-Med Opera Singer. See also, the New York Times profile, "A Breast Cancer Surgeon Who Keeps Challengeing the Status Quo" & sings to her patients.

Anyway, have a great concert!
Thanks! An informative post. I thought your approach to the issue of testing makes a great deal of sense.
