The Music Bucket List

We all have one... And we all need one! Everyone I know has a bucket list... I have one of things that I just generally want to do with my life but I also have another one that I started when I was really little. Over the years I have added to this list... Rewrote it and crossed off items. This list is my musical bucket list. On this list, it has everything that I want to perform, see and hear before I die. Some of these are far fetched, and some were easy for me to mark off, but I still have such a long way to go. They say that if you write something down, you are more likely to do it. So here we go. The ones with an asterisks by them have been completed! 

My musical bucket list:

1. Audition for American Idol (or any singing show really) 

2. Sing "I Dreamed a Dream" in a performance.*

3. Be in an acapella group. 

4. See Wicked*

5. Play Fantine from Les Miserable on Broadway.

17. Sing the National Anthem at some big stadium. (This gets a half asterisks... I sang with my chamber group but didn't do a solo.)

18. Be in the Walla Walla High School Chamber Singers.*

19. Marry a musician. 

20. Go on tour. 

21. Go to London to perform.
