Subacute thyroiditis

Since that cathartic choir experience, I've had it very silent on the singing front. Subacute thyroiditis makes this flu-like condition last for several months. The continuous headache is very frustrating. The good news is, however, that the condition is most likely to return to normal. Some time next year! - Even so, conducting and playing the music are going fine. I've even applied some of the stuff in my client work. Last week, for example, a group of (surprised, then delighted) ministry officials found themselves going through a refreshing voice warm-up in the middle of their controller training. Everyone seemed to enjoy it.

Then there was the TV documentary - filmed way back in August - that was shown on Thursday. A lot of affirming feedback, unexpected contacts and discussion have followed. I'm very pleased that I took on the challenge. What I saw on TV was a poised, bright woman who retained her calm and openness, despite the journalist's critical approach. Well done, Sisko!
