Next Concert and Some Thoughts



Hello,
This is the announcement of our next concert:))
Translation:
Church of Santa Maria
April 21st,  18.00
And of course, Istanbul.


OK!
Ready?
Well, not that much! Still struggling with some pieces such as Kasar Mie La Gaji of Alberto Grau and Zvezdi of Emil Tabakov. But somehow, I am confident that even these pieces will come together by the time of the concert. It always happens this way.
You can never be sure if you dominate the piece until you perform it in front of the audience. Well at least, it happens this way with me! But once you are there, on stage, something miraculous happens and with the start of your maestro, you start to sing. And you realize that, you actually master the piece. All the hard work that you have been through, pays off. Such a wonderful feeling!

And one more thing:
When I am hesitant, I simply surrender to the common sense of the choir. I remain in the flow of music and it works... This is like meditating! Being present, being in the moment and being ONE with the WHOLE... This is what singing in a choir teaches you! You are ONE, each of us is a different ONE but the Choir is more than the sum of these ONES!

The Choir is larger than the sum; bigger, stronger and definitely wiser!
