Second impression and a busy day

Today I was on the 2nd practice with the new choir, and I still like it. I still wish there were at least a few of them closer to my age than Mum's, but other than that, it's a nice bunch. They even sang me a song - belatedly - for my birthday, and I'm the greenest newbie! G. the choir leader, apparently cares very much for team-building, and since the ladies (and few gentlemen) do have the time, nothing is hurried. It is very different from my main choir, where we're always full of stress - even though we might be a tad more professional.

Anyway, it appears to be a very active bunch. We'll have three different gigs in the next 30 or so days, and the repertoire is fairly rich. I've spent the last hour and half with printing out note sheets; I've got a lot to catch up with. But I don't mind. Singen beflügelt die Seele, as the Germans would say (sorry, no idea how to say it in English), and the fact that I have another chance to exercise my vocal cords is a bonus. Of course, I've realized that my voice seems to recover a bit since I don't have to yell at the school yard by any weather...
