So tonight was the opening performance of OperaUCLA's Le Nozze di Figaro AND IT WAS AWESOME. Also all the tempi were really slow which was sort of awkward... except for that one 6/8 section of the Act IV Finale which was SUPER FAST. But the slow tempi meant that Justin and I could actually sort of play the overture and the finales. Which rocked. Especially for me. And the singers were so good! This was the really really good cast. Sunday's cast is less pleasing to me.
Also, JUGGLING FTW. It is now part of my warm-up routine and it gives +10 Technical Ability for the day. (Dex bonus? I really want to make this D&D reference as high-quality as possible...) Srsly though juggling is awesome and allows my brain to really get in touch with itself so that I can execute the music the way I hear it in my head. WIN!
SO YEAH OPERA OMG YAY
