Church this morning wasn't quite as bad as last week. I had another chance at the responsorial I was supposed to lead last week. Then, I could tell by the 2nd note that my voice was too far gone; today I got all the way to the verse before I realized I'd have to have someone else take it. Still no power, and my lower register is unpredictable. The passaggio notes are mostly still shot, and there's a band of notes on either side that are "cats", not "dogs" - in other words, they come and go as they please, instead of doing what I tell them to do. And it doesn't take much talking for me to feel my voice going hoarse and my throat getting achey.
My voice teacher told me to let her know tomorrow evening how I'm doing; that would determine whether I have to cancel this week's lesson.
