It is Thursday and it will be an unusual day. We have masterclasses with the tours that come to Shea’s Performing Arts Center. Generally, this happens on Friday afternoons. Well, on short notice it was changed to today at Bengal Pause. I was asked to sing, which I love doing, but I am singing to pre-recorded accompaniment. I haven’t done this too much and it is difficult. There is not a lot of freedom when singing to a tape. It will be an interesting and new challenge for me. I am really nervous. I couldn’t sleep well last night. It is normal to be nervous before the event, but I am not usually up all night and have a nervous stomachache. I don’t know why things are different this time.
