Well, the Berkshire Lyric Chorus had its spring concert yesterday,
and we choristers are recovering from the strenuous performance.
Thankfully the concert was well attended
(to cover the rent paid for the hall, and the orchestra),
and people in the audience have let us know they liked it.
Actually the Bruckner Mass made a strong impression,
at least on those people who didn't think it lasted too long.
Some of them were in tears, they were so deeply moved.

There was concern on my part that
I would feel too emotional while singing the music;
not the case, I was working too hard and
concentrating on the conductor too closely to get emotional about it.

There may be a video of the performance,
but it will be a while before it is ready for YouTube or wherever.

I'll see the conductor socially tomorrow night,
and we'll see if he is still exhausted by the whole thing.
Actually I think it was a big charge-up for him, unlike the chours.
