In which she sings

[zeborah]

Word of the day: coronial, "relating to a coroner: a coronial hearing". (My guess, seeing it adorning an office building next to a coat of arms and discarding "typo for 'colonial'", was "relating to the Crown".)

Choir: Byrd's Precamur is an absolutely sadistic piece of music: my throat aches, my diaphragm aches worse, and I feel awesome. --Also the actual conductor came this week, and seems amenable to me hanging around.

Go you! Singing in a choir is great, and Byrd is brilliant. Occasionally sadistic, but brilliant.

I think it'll sound good once we can, you know, actually sing it? At the moment we can frequently start and end the bar on the right notes but the stuff in is generally more tangled...

Oh how I know what you mean... :-D (Which is my way of being reassuring. This is how most pieces start out in my experience...)
