the law of blog procrastinating

It's been over a month since my last post. One problem with not updating regularly is that the more time goes by, the more I have to blog about. I have been putting off updating for weeks, partly by saying to myself, "Well, but if I update, I can't possibly not talk about this, or that, or the other thing" but the longer I wait, the longer the list of "this, that, and the other thing" gets. So I will try to re-enter into blogging in moderation, and not feel compelled to talk about everything all at once.

I have two part-time jobs now, one at Winchester High School as a part-time chorus teacher, and the other at the Boston Cecilia as their operations manager. Last week was the first week that I juggled both, and it was very busy! I'm also doing a good deal of singing. I'm most excited about Cappella Clausura and Schola Cantorum. (I could not find a webpage for the Schola Cantorum, but information about the group's director, Fred Jodry, is here.)

Schola Cantorum is a group I feel very lucky to be singing with. For those of you who heard the Westminster Kantorei, the group is very similar to that one, in size and repertoire and performance level. I highly, highly recommend coming to all concerts, and the first set is this weekend! Because I had committed to a recording gig for another choir before joining the group, I will not be at the first concert on Friday (ouch) but here is the information for all three concerts this weekend.
