First of all: sorry for not answering sooner, but I
had some computer hardware problems. To answer your
question: It was the second actually: like having done
lots of sit ups when you're out of practise. I did
sing through the whole program before and did not have
it. One difference: I sang in one particular song for
36 seconds comletely pianissimo: that was much tougher
than when practising, I remember. But I only practised
it twice, it was change of interpretation from two
days before the concert. Could this be more tiring in
a bigger place? The notes were quite low for me (it
starts with the lowest tenor c). Or was I just to
tense to sing a relaxed pianonissimo?. The audience
loved it and you could hear it well on the backrows,
so I think I did it technically ok. This was also the
last song before the pause.
Thanks a lot,
best greetings,
Dre
