After 2 1/2 months of Sunday rehearsals a beautiful concert came to life. I was asked this past July by the General Music Committee of the church to conduct a Relief Society choir. Well, this past Friday, November 14, it came to fruition. A beautiful choir of 120 women from Taylorsville sang their hearts out in the Assembly Hall on Temple Square. It was so cool because I got to conduct present, alumni and mothers of students I have or am currently teaching. Also came a group of new women that were so much fun to teach and get to know. We sang compositions from women around the country, and what an honor. My great friend Bonnie was my accompanist. What a pair we made. It was so spiritual and uplifting and I am so glad I was given the opportunity. My dear sweet husband Glenn was there and my parents came from New Mexico which made it a perfect evening. I am still on a high from that awesome experience.
Me acting goofy in the rehearsal I am sure!!!!
