I volunteered to do a solo, I've always wanted to throw myself in the deep end. Sapphira agreed to the solo, and we had started making plans for what song I was going to sing. After many sessions of researching what songs were popluar me and Sapphira had decided for me to sing Stormy Weather, Etta James version.
After a week, I realised I never had time to practice my solo, because I was soo caught up with coursework, and my personal life but I never told Sapphira, because I was scared of letting her and the class down, so I tried as hard as I could to put time into rehearsing that song. After trying to practice a few times, I realised that Jazz was way out of my comfort zone, and that I didn't feel comfortable singing my solo infront of people who might of idolised that song. I realised this the weekend before our performance. I couldn't let the class down, but then again I couldn't of made a fool of myself.
Targets for future singing lessons:
- If I volunteer for a solo, make sure I know what I'm doing.
