the longest hour

I am substituting for the music teacher today. *sigh* I feel completely inadequate, as I am not musically literate. It is a serious flaw in my education.

Mostly, I am fine. When it's singing, I'm fine. When it is the lower grades practicing tempo, or beats to the measure, I'm okay.

But now, 5th hour, an "improvisational elective"- not so much.

It's loud.

There are 7 or 8 groups, working on "original compositions", simultaneously, all in this one room.

Fifty minutes never lasted so long.
