I wonder indeed...

Just back from singing in a massive concert of Mahler's 2nd symphony at the Town Hall. Such an amazing piece! Singing is just an awesome natural high Nothing like hitting a top B flat at absolute full volume with a huge choir around you and a massive orchestra in full flow... Wow.
*bounces off the ceiling*

YAY! So happy to hear it went well!

Working with that pic as we speak
Not liking where mine is going. Quite like yours, it's effective!

Fabulous! I love that pic. It's so playful.

Thanks! I really like that one.

Sounds like you had a wonderful time!

[Bekki]

ooh, Josi - that is my absolute favourite feeling! High Bbs and choirs! *huggles*

[llp]

Sometimes I love it when no one is around....I can read through all that I have missed and enjoy it without having to make comments. I have been in my "hermit" stage recently....I like being alone, not having to talk with anyone and just enjoying the peace and serenity of life without humans! I might make a habit of this right now. Peace to all!

I know the feeling sometimes llp. Don't hermit too long - it can become a habit.

Sounds amazing I know exactly what you mean, I used to love playing in orchestras and singing in choirs, around here though its just brass bands

Hang on, top Bflat?! As in almost 2 octaves above middle C? *iz in awe* (I'm a 2nd alto - just, after lots of rehearsal )

Octaves? Bflat? Middle c? That's like a foreign language to me All I know about my voice is that people tell me it's 'smoky'

[starlover]

Woohoo Josi! WTG!

Ditto for me! People only tell me "please don't sing"

Still haven't seen the new Sanctuary...will do so tonight!

Yep. I'm a first soprano, love the high notes Not so fond of singing down low, like we had to at the start of the Mahler last night.

It means high, basically. Glass-shattering type note Heck of a feeling when you hit it

I'm with you on that Jumble. Although my daughter sings in shows and chorale. She's going to Greece next summer with her chorale group to perform. A couple of years ago they went to NYC (Madison Square Garden) and performed. She's very good, but I still don't know anything about music after all these years of listening to her.

[Jumble]

Woohoo Josi! WTG!

I've never been asked not to sing, which surprises me

Still haven't seen the new Sanctuary...will do so tonight!

You'll love it!

Do come back to the campfire, though

You're getting very good at this!

Ditto for me! People only tell me "please don't sing"

People never tell me.
...They just run.

Yes you have.
I remember it so clearly...

[Sarai]

*giggles* I just read this out, and Katie says "Jumble, Sarai and Josi.....you're OK Mum, don't worry."

ROFL *wonder's who she meant......*

Shocked! Shocked I tell you, what on earth could have given her that impression?!

[DutchIndeed]

*rolls back in*
Posts. This thread could use some...

This one may be somewhat over-arty, but that picture hates me.

*rolls back out*

[Jumble]

This is true

Yes you have.
I remember it so clearly...

Ah, but that was because of the song, not the singing

Shocked! Shocked I tell you, what on earth could have given her that impression?!

The problem is, Katie has yet to meet any other WooHoos so doesn't realise that we three are the sanest ones
