Fun at choir

Choir met on Tuesday night and began working through the anthems for the coming weeks. We have a lot of new music so its been fun. It has also been harder than normal because we are learning a lot of new pieces instead of simply refreshing our memories on anthems we have done in the past.

We don't have a professional choir. That means most of us simply have fun singing. In order to catch on with a new piece Adele has to drill it into us. We need to go over and over it. That can be tedious at times but when you finally get it right, it is so rewarding and makes you glad that you decided to join the choir.

This week we are doing one that we did a few years ago that everyone liked. By singing it, we have a little breathing room to put the finishing touches on the first of the brand new pieces of the Fall. I put last week's anthem up on the page here and hope to do that regularly now that we are video recording the services. So look for them. Of course, I hope you'll plan to be here in person. There's nothing like it.

If you want to join the choir come next Tuesday at 7:00 p.m. and you will see for yourself how much fun it can be.
