Our Messiah Concert scheduled for next month has been cancelled!
I am so relieved! Between Alex' visit last month, my job, my Dad and a whole host of other things, I haven't had any time to practice my cello. So, this comes as a huge relief for me.
They had problems coordinating with the choir scheduled to sing with my orchestra.
Whew. Now I don't have to worry about it.

I am so jealous of you David. Between now and 12/25, I have 4 of them to sing. At this point I could sing the damn thing with my eyes closed. I can safely say, for me, it is the most lucrative and hideously boring piece of music I know.
Shakesthecoffecan:
All this talk of Handel's Messiah puts me in mind of Leonard Cohen's "Hallelujah", which goes in part:
They say there was a sacred chord,
That David played to please the Lord,
But you don't really care for music do ya?
It goes like this: The fourth, the fifth,
The major fall the minor lift,
The baffeled king composing Hallelujah!
Hallelujah! Hallelujah!
I have this tribute cd of his music I love listening to, much more than I do him singing his own music (bless his heart).

Ain't that the truth. Rufus Wainwright recorded it a few years back. I actually sang it (by request) last year at a benefit. The original has like 10 verses.
