Why?

Referencing the former clients who stiffed me on costuming and ignored me last night at their gig at CODA, now I've received an invitation to their gig tonight in Sedalia.

WTF, people? You want me to support your gig but you won't even look at me while I'm there?

Sorry, I'm not that gullible.

I need a nap.

In the good news, choir practice was lots of fun, especially as I'm paid to be there. All the singing is also paying off in improved vocal quality. I'm hitting higher notes with greater quality. The other gal from choir, Gabi, who has such a lovely 2nd soprano voice and who does most of the solos at church worked on a piece where we sing lovely harmonies. We agreed that it would be fun to sing a duet together. She has a highly trained voice and I was really pleased that she and I sound so good together. And we're singing an arrangement of Bach's "Air on the G String" which is just gorgeous.

I really do enjoy this church; wish there were more people attending it. They're missing some really good quality music.

Oh, and she's looking for an oboe player for one song on Sunday, based on "Wayfaring Stranger"; a very easy part and it is a paying gig.

*hug*

Poke Kelsey on Facebook about the oboe thing.

AH! Good idea, thanks!

Possibly the invitation was a peace offering, since there hadn't been drama in the last two encounters. But if you're presuming hypocrisy, then maybe going anywhere on purpose where they'll be is just inviting some sort of inevitable conflict?

I'm going to let it rest awhile and hope that time will heal it.

You may be right on the invitation; it just struck me as odd.

It's really wonderful.

I was there and either singing or rehearsing from 9:15 this morning until 2pm. Tired doesn't begin to cover it but we're doing some really nifty stuff. I'm hoping that soon we can video and record a couple of the small group pieces so I can share them.
