debris4spikeI have just got in from the final rehearsal - and I am tired even though I only played for half of it as my lungs are still not healed. It lasted about 3 1/2 hours - and I am tired, so I dread to think what the rest will feel like.
Well the theory is that a bad rehearsal means a good performance - if so ... well lets just say - the piano concerto will sound amazing tonight!!
This morning I went riding - we had planned to be out for some time, but Toni and I met Ros and we stood and chatted for about 1/2 hour - so cut our ride short! DJ was already upset to see me this morning - well he knows it is a weekend and I am away at my parents over that time. That and Toni had moved his field yesterday - so I think he hoped that I wouldn't find him!!
Still - we didn't work hard - and I still gave him a feed before putting him back in his field!
Oh well - I had better get the final float etc organised for tonight - and then it will be time for something to eat, before changing and heading back to the venue! Hope we get a reasonable number - as a lot of hard work goes into these events!

Date: 2007-09-29 04:11 pm (UTC)Yes - this is why the conductor and I had agreed that I would only rehearse the bits where I was needed. The modern piece and the symphony - I am just "part of the noise(!)" - which means that I can play if I feel up to it tonight - or not!
Trouble is when I finish I am straight off to Mum and dad's and as Dad is preaching tomorrow (and our pianist is having chemo) he is hoping I will be able to play my clarinet for the hymns ... we shall see!
