This fall I became a member of Christmas Matters Holiday Carolers, a professional caroling ensemble in Los Angeles. We are a group of about 40 local singers who learn a huge book of choral christmas arrangements and are hired out in quartets to sing at holiday celebrations and other events. We wear Victorian-esque costumes when we sing, it’s a ton of fun! I loved learning the music and singing together with lots of wonderful people.
My mom did an absolutely fantastic job sewing my skirt, jacket, and blouse! She added extra fabric across the back of the jacket so I can easily move my arms to hold up my music. She also added a pocket to the inside of the skirt so I can keep my phone and keys with me at gigs!
