Home for the Holidays

I am now home in the Bay for most of this winter break, and it's damn good to be back! This past semester had its ups and downs, but it is now done and: it's time for the home stretch; I'm rounding third and headed for home; it's just me and the goalie/defender; it's time to go to the second ending (okay that last one is pretty cheesy, but hey I'm a music major.)

A quick rundown of my semester:

• Two more roles to my résumé [Leader (Weill) and Bill (Barber)]
• Subbing with a professional Chamber Choir (Bella Voce)
• Networking with other directors/conductors/singers in Chicago
  
• Finishing my research paper
• Experiencing my first sub-zero (-5) temperature BEFORE adding in wind chill (-23) -- and going outside into it (okay, not my best decision; it was really freakin' cold; my breath froze on my beard and on my eyelashes)

Anyway, I'll be HOME until January 19 studying/learning music for my recital, maybe temping and hopefully seeing as many of you as I can.
