Dance like no one is watching

Jill invited me to their ballet studio concert. They had chosen such beautiful music, most of it modern, even pop and the choreography was wonderful. This young girl did a solo, started well and then shook her head and ran off. After a few more performances she came back and danced her piece, beginning to end. You could see she had been crying but now she was dancing with passion, before her dance was technically precise. I applaud her courage, for coming back on stage. Wow!

I only took photographs of Jill's performance and the closing of the show.
I, however, did not take the picture of Jill backstage.

Vocalize in concert

Vocalize, an a cappella quintet, sang at a fund raiser for St George's Turning Point Foundation.
Songs from the 1500s to present day. My favourites were The Rose and Under Pressure.
A lovely afternoon. The teatime spread was unbelievable. And of course it being at Northwards was charming. Thank heavens there are people who care enough to preserve these old gems.

Lunch hour concert

I've always wanted to go to a lunch hour concert, but I'm too far away to get there and back in my lunch hour. So when I had the day off I indulged myself, eyes closed, just listening, and letting the music soothe the soul ;-) It was lovely!
