I think we will end up doing it at Brad's church, but that is not idea. But at least people from my church might come if we do it there, because Brad's church is in Newport. I am the scapegoat for these stupid operas, everyone wants me to do stuff that I don't have time to do because I am the Assistant Director, I have still not heard from all my grad schools, and I am panicking because my recital will not be very good. I can't postpone it, because it is already on 26 April. It should be over, but it's not.
Rice is out . . .
Auditions are don'e, I am back in Oxford, and the waiting period to see who gave me what money begins. I did not sing well for them at all. As for Eastman, I hope beyond hope I got in, but I really have no clue. I fell good about the audition, though, and it was great to see Rick Quantz there. But as it is, I am stuck here in the US, giving presentations about Hans Erich Pfitzner to my vocal lit class and substitute teaching.
