I just had to make note of something that happened in school today that made me chuckle. – the symphonic choir sang the Lord Nelson Mass by Haydn. This is an amazing work but what was even more amazing is that we had all of two weeks to prepare it under the baton of our Grad Assistants Carlos and Meg. So today there were about 180 students walking around the campus and going to their classes in full tuxedo concert dress – where in the world does that happen other than Westminster? – Where in the world do people just pop up and sing major works at the drop of a hat? – This work was sung to just the campus community who swaggered in to listen. In other parts of the world (including The Bahamas) this would be a major occasion, here at Westminster its just a blow in the wind. At the end of the concert it was funny to see students changing…literally changing from their concert dress into their jeans in the middle of the hallway - no where except at Westminster!!!!
