Hi @Former-Member, it was a good rehearsal, my William Byrd is improving, and so are the English folk songs, and listening to the Khosidl "Yiddish Dances" has given me a better idea of how bouncy and bright that work is. Paul, our conductor suggested the recording of it to listen to on YouTube. I did a half-hour rowing workout (I'll bump the resistance up quite a bit on Thursday) and then had a bath, shampooed and conditioned my hair and beard, put on beard balm beard butter and oil, combed the hair and, put a change of clothes on, got my trumpet and walked to rehearsal. I got there with 20 minutes to spare, so I helped the stagehands set up by putting out the merimbas, tubular bells, timpani and kettle drums and the cymbals. Then we had a 2 hour rehearsal straight through, I thought I was going to have a few minutes rest because my lips were getting tired, but that didn't happen, they weathered it quite well, though I won't practise tonight, but my jaw isn't tired at all. Anyway I'm home now, resting and thinking about dinner.

Re: Share a cuppa?
Sounds like a big day @Abner are you a professional trumpet player ?
My day was quite ; did some
Cleaning, had an Appoinent and went for a swim.
Had dinner though salmon and salad. Tried to attend a support group this morning early, however was cancelled. Quite tired so possibly an early night for me.
Let me know if you want a cuppa after your evening meal 😊.

Re: Share a cuppa?
I'm not professional yet, but at this stage in my life I'm putting myself out there to perform with amateur and semi-professional ensembles. I discovered a talent for music later in life and it's been a lifelong wish to study music, and that talent has been a lifeline through the defamation and ensuing traumas.

Re: Share a cuppa?
Hi @ArraDreaming I'm well, I should say as well as I can be, I still have some revisits from the traumas I suffered, and I had a visit from the grief part, but otherwise ok. I'm having a late night because I'm paying bills online, phone, light... I'm about to go to sleep now as I'm tired now. I watched the end of "Savage River*, rivetting! Drop in for a cuppa tomorrow if you want, or I'll drop you a line.
