Summer Solo at Home
Here’s a video that was taken this past summer at my church at home, Second Congregational Church in Rockford, IL. I always enjoy singing at Second Con when I visit my family, as they always welcome me home so graciously! Bob Bates (organist) & I are performing “Alleluia” from Mozart’s “Exultate Jubilate”. This was one of the first coloratura pieces I ever learned, and I think it’s taken me about this long to come to appreciate the eloquence in everything Mozart writes for the voice. Of course, it also helps to come up with ten completely different reasons to say “Alleluia.”
