BOOOOO! No break, please. But I suppose my vocal coach and her family is entitled to some fun over the summer. I can take this time to scour my books and find more and More and MORE! music to work on… no worries, I won’t kill myself just get some more songs that appeal to me. Kathrine has offered to make some copies of Conductor pieces, but I still cannot find a copy of “Thuy’s Death/You Will Not Touch Him” a powerful, dramatic duet from Miss Saigon.
I have already copied some music from a few Lloyd Webber shows, some of my favorite Alan Menken/Howard Ashman Disney character pieces, and a few more duets. I have had a few people state an interest in singing a duet with me so I’m doing my best to find some. I have a serious one to work on with another tangenteer… wherever she is. YOOHOO! Plus, I am still continuing my preparation for Hound of the Baskervilles. Why does it seem to me that most guys grow a beard in the winter? I’m one of the few who grow one in the summer in the 90+ degree, humid weather… ah, well such is the life of a performer. You would have thought my time Fiddling on that Roof 8 years ago would have made me leary of growing another beard, but Oh, No… not me… whatever the role calls for, I will do! Even before the audition
Ooook… so two weeks off. Still thinking a weekend gig would be fun with some friends joining me. Come on tangenteers!
Ah, summer vacations with the fam – fun stuff!! Where are they headed?
What kind of weekend gig? We have Holmes rehearsals starting next week, what more do you want?
oh, this would be AFTER Holmes, my friend. O/C this kind of gig prolly would not appeal to you performance wise…. unless you have changed your outlook on singing?
I just checked my once waterlogged mess of sheet music I copied from the library years ago. I copied several Miss Saigon songs, but not that one. I suspect it wasn’t in the book, but I may have just skipped it if it was for some reason.
Nope, the song isn’t listed as part of the score the library still has. Interesting find though- they have a DVD of the making of Miss Saigon (1989). I will have to take a look at this sometime.
