The next few weeks are going to be very busy. Less than three weeks until I leave for Russia with my father-in-law. I'm very excited about this trip for many reasons: a trip to a new country, exploration of a new culture, knowledge gained from research, bonding time with my father-in-law, practicing my language skills... the list goes on and on!
What happens before I leave for Russia? The apartment will get packed up into boxes. I will finish the first draft of my dissertation proposal and start my first chapter. I will begin the process of getting scholarship translated (and hopefully some of it will be read). A couple more trips within driving distance. Picking up cleaning supplies for the apartment. Packing for Russia. Solidify the repertoire lists for this upcoming fall.
I am already looking forward to some of the music I have chosen. I'll bring some of it with me to Russia so I can prepare it. I will look forward to discussing these repertoire lists once I make decisions.
I know one large work, however, that my choirs will be singing in a joint concert with the local symphony and other choirs: Dvorak's Stabat Mater. I am quite excited.
