I miss singing. I haven't sung in public (not even in church with the rest of the congregation) since last March. No performances, no karaoke, not even a Zoom session.
I'm not a great singer. I am a pretty good baritone, suitable to certain kinds of musical theater roles, especially in amateur productions. My biggest asset is being able to act the role, rather than just sing the notes. I can find the phrasing, the pauses, the emphasis to make the lyrics more than just words set to music, but a character's speech on tune. Even when doing a pop tune (I love singing Billy Joel in karaoke!), I find a character in the words and play that.
So, I miss singing.
