Week 39 - Finals

Took my conducting final exam today, feel pretty good about it. Tomorrow is my 'final' final exam, covering every topic from day 1. This, I'm worried about. I've had my noses in a book for 3 days now, I 'think' I know what I'm doing, I won't know for sure until tomorrow.

Monday is the big recording session! I'm totally stoked about the piece I've written. Two and 1/2 minutes for orchestra. Mostly a victory march with a love theme in the middle, I hope it's prophetic!

I am absolutely physically and emotionally drained, yet I feel a great sense of accomplishment.

In the days following the recording session there will be portfolio prep and my exit interview where I basically defend all of my compositions to the program director. I feel confident about the interview and the recording session, the final tomorrow is the only thing really weighing heavy on me. I'm hoping a decent night's sleep will help.
