sitting behind the piano. And I guess that is great most of the time. I love playing the piano. I enjoy being able to help add music to church services and participate in musical numbers as an accompanist.
My only regret is that I miss the opportunity to sit and enjoy the vocalists to the fullest extent. I can't see their faces and I don't usually hear the music to its full advantage.
Yesterday in Sacrament Meeting at the Singles Ward, my two lovely daughters sang a duet together. I enjoyed rehearsing it with them. I enjoyed helping them prepare for it. I enjoyed the convenience of having an "in-house" accompanist saving me the trouble of having to arrange for someone else. I enjoyed the push it gave me to learn a rather difficult piece of music.
If only I could have watched their faces...

I understand this completely....enough said :-)
I only have two words for you: Video Camera.
One of my main regrets is that I quit playing piano when I was little. Now as an adult I have not ONE musical ability. You are an inspiration and I love listening to you play.
The girls sounded like angels singing on Sunday, what a wonderful gift they have!
I heard they were amazing!
