Dona Eis Requiem

Today is All Souls' Day, which we commemorated at church this evening with a performance of Fauré's Requiem. Fabulous piece of music, and as a viola player I can only approve of a score with divided violas and cellos and only one violin :-) This time, though, I was singing alto - the Offertoire is our big moment, but my favourite section is the Libera Me.

Apart from a couple of wobbly moments - mainly due to not having enough rehearsal with the orchestra, I think - it went pretty well this evening. I enjoyed it, anyway!
