I have no idea how I actually won the audition! I just had a baby this summer (he's 3 months old now!) and the night before the audition he had a really rough night. I think I had a grand total of 4 hours of sleep. I went to the audition, wanting to win, but figuring that with my brain on auto pilot there really was no point. Apparently the key to winning was being so tired I wasn't nervous.
I am so grateful to officially be a part of a symphony! Especially one that I already know that I enjoy performing with. Lansing is a little bit of a drive for me, but totally worth it! My husband used to tell me that when I got a job with an orchestra I could buy a new harp, but I'm not sure that we can afford one yet, or that we can really justify the $30,000 purchase.
Keep your eyes peeled for upcoming LSO concerts this year! We have some fun music to come and hear!
