We almost sang all the right notes!

selenayI had a lovely day out in Oxford on Saturday with Mum, getting odds and ends of Christmas shopping done and generally enjoying the seasonal vibes of my favourite city. I feel a reread of Doomsday Book by Connie Willis coming on...
And on Sunday, I sang in my first big concert with my choir! It was really good fun and we were a sell-out, which is good because it means our nominated charities are getting lots of dosh. We even sang almost all the right notes and, except for two lines of Jingle Bell Rock that went slightly awry (the dangers of deciding going off-copy for an extra song two weeks before the concert!), we even sang all the right words!
I suspect we're better than I think we are. I don't get the full effect, standing with the other 80 sopranos with one slightly tuneless person to my right, so I can't judge. Mum and Dad reported we sounded great, but they would, wouldn't they?
If you are a Londoner and you want to judge for yourself, come and see us at Marylebone station next Monday (December 17th) between 5pm and 7pm. Bring some change, because we're raising money for Scannappeal.
The important part is that we had fun with music, I'm making new friends, and I'm definitely continuing next term. Hooray for singing!
