Day 2 Behind the Scenes in Prague - Touring Chronicles #4

Hey folks!

Day 2 in Prague was a whirlwind of rehearsals, on-stage magic, and a dinner chat that spilled some choir origin tea.

Let me fill you in!

On-Stage Revelations:

Today was all about hitting the stage, perfecting the sound, and adding more dance moves to our repertoire.

Ever wondered what it's like to work with a click track in one ear while listening to the orchestra in the other?

It's like patting your head and rubbing your stomach simultaneously – a bit tricky, but oh so interesting!

Quick note for the curious minds: A click track is like a musical metronome that keeps us all in sync, ensuring we stay in harmony with the orchestra. It's like a secret musical guide whispering in our ears.

Conductor's Praise:

Our conductor, Gavin, shared some love, expressing amazement at how well we tackle diverse musical styles.

We're here beaming with pride – music is indeed a universal language!

Stage Tower Drama:

Rehearsing on stage brought its own drama – the choir will be in two metal towers, and the folks on top had one rule for us below: "Don't move a muscle!" Safety first, right?

Choir Origin Stories:

At dinner, we dived into the juicy backstory of how our choir came to be.

Ken, our visionary founder, got inspired by a group called Jubilate in the US.

He thought, "If they can do it, why not in Kenya?"

So, with the help of a friend, he put up posters, spread the word, and voila – the founding members came together in 2005.

Fast forward, and here we are, a choir family with over 100 talented individuals who've graced our ranks.

The journey has been nothing short of incredible!

Future Memoir Alert:

I'm considering compiling all these choir stories into a memoir. Interested?

Drop me an email and let me know you'd like to get your hands on that! 📖✨ corrine@jacarandamusichub.co.ke
