Enjoying the Dance!

Tonight we perform at Trinity Episcopal Church in Tulsa, OK.  This beautiful stone church has a vibrant, warm acoustic and there is a sense that many fervent  prayers have been spoken here.  It would be easy to over-sing because of how much the sound swirls inside.  Much of our rehearsal yesterday was spent in taking each concert piece and adjusting balance to this space so that the clarity of text and composers' vision remain clear. So much of music making is like a well-choreographed dance, learning the sensitivity of when to come forward and making way for other parts in turn. It is a true joy to be a part of this process! I pray that our voices tonight will join the spirit of worship that is so alive in this  space.
