Easter is coming. I will do the Exsultet for Easter Vigil Mass!

 This is very exciting! I believe it is the first time that somebody is doing the Exult solo that is not the Music Director for Holy Trinity. It is 6 pages long, lasts 10 minutes, and is acapella! It is dense and in a specific smaller range as it is considered chant. But it is all sung and I will be the one who sings it this year. 




It is the most demanding piece of music that I have ever done, considering that I will not have musical accompaniment for my singing and it goes on for an extended period of time. I will be singing my own aria, except that it will be for God. This experience is also for me, given that I now have STRONG incentive to practice each day and continue to develop my singing! lol. If my pitch starts going flat, I will end up in the basement by the end. 

Gaming is something that I do when I have the free time. But singing is my life. I do it every day. It is the home that I carry with me. It is the way that I share my heart.

Regarding the Exult, I wonder if I can smuggle in a pitch pipe to give myself the starting note before I begin?..
