The Church's One Foundation

Today was the first time I have ever conducted band. And I am still alive! I was very nervous beforehand, but was very surprised to find myself enjoying the experience once I began. There was a big difference in sound, standing in front of all the instruments as opposed to being in the very back with percussion. Having a measure of control over the dynamics and tempo was a cool feeling. I probably took it too fast because of being nervous.

Anyhow, more conducting experiences will soon be following, next Monday I have to conduct Bach's Jesu, meine Freude #1 in choir.
