Last lesson with my voice professor went great 🥲❤️ I only cried a little. She gave me some names of choruses and opera choirs to audition for in the city I’m moving to next semester, and she said she’ll come to any performances I do (bc she lives in that area and just commutes up here), and I did an… acted-out (?) runthrough of my recital piece and I think it went super well. Knock on wood but I’m excited :3

#I get to pretend I’m singing to my dying grandchild who is an infant also. hooray #anyway I love my voice teacher SO MUCH I’m gonna miss her :(#but she gave me her number to text her with updates on all of my music stuff :D #also I just realized I forgot to remind her about this thing she asked me about a couple months ago…#she wanted to know if I wanted to write any poems to be set to music #as part of a group of local musicians and writers and whatnot that she’s starting #and I. wanted to remind her about it bc I really want to write Lieder poems are you kidding #that would be so cool and fun and. yeahh #I haven’t written poetry in quite a while but I miss it!#idk if my poetry is very lyrical…? I could make it work #or I guess the composer would be the one making it work #I forgot I talked to Eric Whitacre’s main lyric writer that one time…#he told me to just start sending my poems to composers. idk I think I’m too shy for that. also like. not nearly THAT talented lmao #but it would be fun…. maybe if nothing else I’ll ask my composer friends if they’d like to write anything together #I really want to stay involved in music <3 #ALSO I WANT TO WRITE SOMETHING IN SOLRESOL SO BAD. I have so many Solresol art song drafts in Musescore #it sucks so bad as both a conlang and a musical thing. but it’s very cool as a poetic thing #anyway tangent aside I guess I’ll ask her about it at the recital or maybe mention it to her husband when I see him #he’s a composer too! ooh #musicposting
