Over the weekend, I had All South Jersey Chorus practice. At last week's rehearsal, we were told that we had to know our music this week and that we would be tested on certain pieces. Well, our conductor wasn't kidding. She tested people on four different songs, and they did pretty well. She wanted us to have all of our music mostly memorized, which most people didn't. Then, we started rehearsing the hardest piece that we are doing and a lot of people didn't know their parts, so our conductor got really frustrated with everyone. I definitely don't want to be one of the people that learns their music last minute because I want to enjoy my last All South Jersey concert, without having to worry about forgetting words.
How does your conductor compare to Ms. Trip. Does the conductor lose it all the time, or just sometimes? I'd like to see you start internalizing other people's behavior, and demonstrate that you've grown through their actions.
