Der Mond ist aufgegangen

I'm tiiiired, but fortunately it's no longer (entirely) because of a bad cold but because we had a 3.5 hours choir dress rehearsal today. On Tuesday I had too much of a sore throat to sing but I still went to the rehearsal which went long as well, and now there's a concert tomorrow evening and another one Saturday evening. And there's classes as well, and a birthday party, and my head weighs way too much. But I think the concerts will go well :) (Mostly.) We're singing 17 Christmas- and winter songs, from folk classics like Maria durch ein Dornwald ging and Still o Himmel to more classical (?) songs like O Magnum Mysterium by Victoria and Denn er hat seinen Engeln befohlen by Mendelssohn, and some in English like Christmas Lullaby by Figallo and some in Spanish like Ya viene la vieja, it's a beautiful program. (The quality of these recordings vary a lot btw, I basically picked the first one I found of the version we're actually singing.)

Thanks! The concerts went well - no more concerts today, fortunately, my voice is half dead, but now it doesn't matter as much anymore.
