Well, we were going too well and we were heading for a fall. First we had a sick alto, but the four ladies who showed up were mighty and we got Zak and the ladies' ensemble in the can; our tenor who has wonderful pitch, diction, and a way around the lyrics showed up and announced he was ready to sing but there might be problems since he was up most of the night being violently ill wth what sounds like food poisoning. At that point our pianist announced his inner ear infection was giving him vertigo and that, after we recorded the tenor, he had to go home. I had to call our soprano and tell her her session was cancelled and we'd see her on January 7.
The tenor was wonderful and we recorded him in three takes and two small fixes.
So, I'm hone and I have other work on the recording I can do here, like continue to type up the lyrics.
I have to say that we've been quite fortunate so far, but I can use all the vibes you can send for a successful three action-packed days to finish this turkey from Jan 5-7!
