It’s probably quite impossible to describe the scope of events that have taken place in my four years at LSM. The friends, teachers, chaplains, staff, recitals, ensembles, services, mandatory social activities, dorm dance parties and raves, mischief… Well, as I said, it’s quite impossible to describe, but because of all these things and more, LSM has become a great part of my life. It’s really quite easy to become nostalgic as this month is quite suddenly coming to an end.
As some of you (or more likely none of you) may know by my long-winded journal entries, I was part of the Bringing Worship Home Program this past year. The BWH program gave me some new opportunities to be involved in the music program at my home church, and it has made me a more experienced, if not better, church musician.
As for the current goings-on, this day, the third to the last, is whizzing by in a flurry of recitals. Of special note is the Collegium Musicum concert—that’s right, concert—tomorrow at 10:00AM. ‘Twill be a sweet concert and each and every student, faculty member, staff person, and random passer-by should attend. How else is one to get their necessary fix of krumhorns, shawms, recorders, viols, sackbuts, and the like? This year Andrew Whitfield and his gorgeous voice will be joining us. I look forward to it very much.
Well ODJ, I best be off to cherish these last days of the month. I send all my love to the many people that make LSM a wonderful place to be; I hope you know who you are.
