About music. Wikilinks being added as tuits allow, and I will flesh it out a bit. I've been singing since I was about eleven, but having started singing lessons in 2005 I am now much better - and therefore given much harder things to sing. I tried singing tenor as my voice changed, with poor results, so changed to bass, settling on second. I have since found out that I am a baritone, with a range from low E (Eb or D on a good day, but E is reliable) to top F# easily, Ab as the top of the normal singing range, and can reach up to a B with a run-up and without straining my voice. ==Working on...== * [http://www.readingfestivalchorus.org.uk/ Reading Festival Chorus] Christmas concert, 15 December :* [http://www.ceciliamcdowall.co.uk/works.htm Cecilia McDowall] ''Christus Natus Est'' :* Charpentier ''Messe de minuit'' * Haydn ''Nelson Mass'', [http://www.aldworthphilharmonic.org.uk/nextconcert.html performance 13 October] * Tavener ''The Lamb'' extract, at church * ''Simple Gifts'', solo with church choir * Copland ''Old American Songs'', various ==Things I have sung== These are some of the things I have sung in front of actual audiences.
