Score Markings-- The Wrong Way

Score markings.

I did something that goes against every fiber of my musical being.  Instead of making score markings in my full scores (of pieces I am conducting at an honors choir festival in March), I made score markings in the vocal scores first.  I ordered the full scores, but they took about a month to come in.  In the meantime, I made some markings the vocal scores (that were going to be handed out to the singers).  --

I'm going to stop here, because I don't need to explain.  But needless to say, I transferred all my score markings into my full scores from the vocal scores.  I have the music in my brain, but I haven't put the all the markings in my full score.  And, I haven't went through the orchestral parts as thoroughly as I would like.  Needless to say, I feel behind.  It's a good thing I'm on maternity leave.  I have all this extra time... (I'm rolling my eyes.  You just can't see it).

So, this next week, my goal is to finish my score markings for Schubert's Mass in G, Haydn's Little Organ Mass, and two more pieces for the April concert.  The two choral pieces are straight forward.  The Schubert and Haydn will be exciting to finish marking.

Also, I downloaded two new books to my Kindle.  They aren't exactly music related, but I think they will be useful for me as a musician.  Both are Brene Brown books.
