Here are 6 random facts about me. Like this status & I will give you a number of facts to post. 1. Im the eldest child in my family, but I wasnt the firstborn. My parents had a full-term still birth (my only sister) 15 1/2 months before I was born. I Alison have a brother whos just under 3 1/2 years younger than me. 2. I started school a year early because I went to a very small private school that would take me because I knew my colors & alphabet and could count to 100. 3. My first formal music lessons started when I was six & there was a piano teacher that was coming to my school. They didnt last long; he decided to move on, I guess. 4. I really learned good breathing & vocal technique at 1BL under Johnny Hallett & Bruce Eldridge. 5. I remember Pastor Brent tagging along (with his mom & brother) when the New Creation Singers (under Bruces direction) went to other churches to present our program of singing & testimonies. He was maybe 4 or so at the time. Kathy would have to say for sure, though! Uh...he wasnt pastor then. Just to clarify. 6. Ive been playing viola for 45 years (!!!) having learned at Bancroft Jr High (behind 1 BL) & learning a lot of technique from conductors Ive sat under along the way, including a professional cellist (with the Pacific Symphony) who directed a standing church orchestra at 1 BL. But...true confession here... my formal lessons maybe add up to 12 months. I did play in a string orchestra when I was a student at Biola, though, & have always kept playing & (hopefully) improving.
