With no nytimes subscription, not able to see the article, I was speaking as a choral singer who desperately misses being able to sing in person with other people.

About the NYT article, I wondered if maybe that was the case...I know it's not possible to subscribe to everything! I miss singing with others too as it was literally my life. I also can't sing anymore because of my spine, and that is something I am having to accept. It's like a major part of my life has been taken away. Last Autumn I had gingerly started back singing again at church in choir and was enjoying it again, but then Covid put a stop to that this Spring, but by then I couldn't stand up unaided and sing, plus climb/descend stairs, process/recess, and go to/from the altar (the Episcopal church is like aerobic church...we stay busy). Anyway, it sucks. I can't express how much I miss that bond of singing with others and making music. Here's to hoping live music can be made again real soon *raises mug of herbal tea*...

ouch! I will add you to my prayers for healing, may you (and all of us) be able to sing to G-d with others soon!
