Last night was my first practice with the North York Concert Orchestra. Overall, it went well. I haven't sight-read music in a while in a setting where it was a little quick paced. I enjoyed it a lot, even while I was stumbling through everything. I must say, the hardest part of joining was actually taking my first steps into the room with my double bass. It was a bit of a surreal feeling being the "new-kid-on-the-block" but it was a very relaxed setting that helped me feel less like a pig on roller skates. Anyway, I have a lot to work on and I need a little bit more confidence in my playing but otherwise, I think I will be okay.
