Yesterday I had a Cantorial class. This was really the start of the Fall session. He is starting early for me in order to give me some extra lessons since that is my entire reason for being here. I was quite surprised by this, but also quite pleased. I am back on the “twice a week” schedule and will work around the holidays.
As I mentioned last week, I went through most of the Friday night service yesterday. There are some rough spots that I will work on, plus I now have several pieces for the Saturday morning service.
We finished the Ulpan book today. Just in time for the test on Tuesday! Funny how that worked out. The class has been shrinking lately, and we are now down to 7 or 8 people from the 30 we had earlier. People are leaving the country or starting other schools.
I am also starting to get ready for the High Holy Days coming up next week. I really have no expectations of it being any different than I am used to with the exception of different melodies. I will undoubtedly write about it between Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur.
