Let the Flogging Begin!

The long-awaited email arrived today, in both of our in-boxes: "I am very pleased to offer each of you a place in the Choral Society of Durham--congratulations!"

Knowing how many people received invitations to join from the number of addresses in the "to" field and how many were scheduled to audition as of a little over a week ago, it looks like about 1 in 3 auditionees were invited to join - about 5 women and 6 men. We're both thrilled to have been among the chosen. Now, to get our hands on the music...!

Great news, but the church choir in California still misses y'all.

The church in California is missed by us, too. Ah well... we're making a joyful noise here anyway!

Nikki said...

Thanks, sis. :)

Now if only they'd invent a reliable matter transmitter ...

I really enjoyed attending all your Saddleback concerts back here in California ... I will miss them this year. Ah, well, I'll be with you in spirit.

Congratulations ... and wishing you lots of elasticity for that upcoming musical stretching.

Eh... I suppose cars and planes don't count as matter transmitters. :D

Yeah, it's more fun not to have audience members we know, too. We'll have to see if they routinely record the concerts. Perhaps a CD will be better than nothing.
