Hi all.. I'm a bit of a lurker and haven't posted much so I suppose I'll introduce myself. I'm Katherine, a 15 yr old lyric soprano. I've been singing for years, most seriously for the last two or three. I take private lessons and belong to a children's choir (By the way, I'd be interested to know if anyone here has heard of it – the Salt Lake Children's Choir. What , if anything, have any of you heard?).
Anyway, I actually need to ask for some advice. I have a recital coming up on Saturday and I'm performing a difficult song with a high range. The last day or so I've developed a pretty bad sore throat and I'm wondering if anyone has any suggestions that would help me to perform my best in this condition. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I'm also wondering if anyone has any idea of competitions, training programs or anything of the sort in Utah..preferably the Salt Lake area. I've been looking for any information on organizations or other ways I can get involved in my area or have more opportunities to learn and perform, but I haven't found anything worthwhile. It's probably a long shot, but if anyone has any ideas, I'd really appreciate hearing them.
-Katherine
