Sweet music

Tonight's seminar workshop on the elements of music was the last in the series. The lectures having ended last week, the participants spent the session applying what they were taught in the past eight weeks to learn a new choral piece. The seminar speaker went off to teach the men the tenor and bass parts while I was given the responsibility to teach the ladies the soprano and alto parts. When we all sang together (with me providing accompaniment with my keyboard) after about three quarters of an hour of practice , I felt once again the thrill and a proud sense of accomplishment that comes when one finally tackles a piece of music and hears the result of all the hard work put into it.
