Choir and singing (Ju Ju)
« on: November 14, 2013, 10:00:47 PM »

Ju Ju - wondered if you'd been able to give the Berlioz Te Deum a listen.  Hope you enjoyed it!

Also, have you done your singing exam yet? Hope it goes/went well - best of luck!

Thank you, yes! Wonderful! My exam is on the 25th, where I shall queue up with children taking their exams! I am taking Grade 2, having started lessons a couple of years ago with no musical background at all other than the knowledge that deep inside I had a voice.

Hey Ju Ju

That's fantastic! It's lovely to hear of women taking up new interests later in life! I think I need one too (a new interest).

The best of luck for your exam!

Thank you! I hadn't intended taking exams, but I'm doing it as much for my teacher as me, plus it provides structure and motivation to practice. Also the exam is a challenge in itself. Exams and I have not got on very well. I won't tell you how many driving tests I took!  :o

Ju Ju - This is going off at a bit of a tangent.

Since posting earlier, I mentioned to OH that there was somebody, on this forum that was doing  the Grade 2 singing exam. Whereupon he says, "That's really good, how old is she?"
I thought he knew the approximate age range of ladies interested in MM sorts of things, but I may have been mistaken..............
He is very impressed with you taking the Grade II on however.

I shall be 60 next year! It is never too late to do something you really want to do.
