Feeling grateful to be getting back to regular singing at rehearsal of the church choir I am in this evening. The choir has been off for about a month, which occurs annually in July or August.
The concern is I am aware, as a Parkinson's Disease patient, that the voice can be affected by PD. I've been aware previously that regular singing can be a help in this; a friend whose husband died some years ago of PD recommended to me a singing group that is dedicated to PD patients for just that purpose. Their schedule did not work for me, but I've come to realize regular rehearsals with the choir plus singing at last three Sunday mornings per month are a great alternative.
So, with this month of choir off time, I have more and more been feeling my voice starting to go south, and thus my gratitude about going back to rehearsals.
And I will definitely want to remember to inquire with our music director about recommendations for voical exercises I can for future choir times off.
