Seattle Choral Company presented “An Irish Christmas,” a spectacular holiday concert last
night at St. Mark’s Cathedral. It
was probably one of the best choral performances I’ve heard in a long time.
Before the concert began, I started with a sketch of St.
Mark’s round sanctuary window and one of many chandeliers. Then I spent most of
the concert sketching while we listened to traditional Celtic carols and
anthems.
Maybe because music and sketching both occupy the same side
of my brain, I find that I can sketch and listen without one activity
detracting from the other. If anything, I find I listen more intently while my
eyes and brain are engaged with sketching.
