Anna’s choir teacher asked her and another girl in their class to audition for Solo and Ensemble with the very beautiful duet, Andrew Lloyd Weber’s “Pie Jesu”. At first Anna was supposed to do the alto part which is very hard because if you can’t find the first note of the phrase you’re hosed til the next phrase. They performed it for their class and Anna messed up a few times – she was devastated. So, they decided to switch, she would sing the soprano and her partner would do the alto part. Last night, she got hit with aches and sore throat and basically flu symptoms. She was so stressed about ruining this for her friend, again. My dear friend, Sarah, helped them twice, and totally put Anna back together again last night. Today, she couldn’t go to much of school but was determined to see this audition through. She nailed it! They both did. I’m so proud of her for sticking it out, even when it got really hard. I was able to video it. I didn’t have the best vantage point, but you can still hear.
