I met with Adele and Cynthia this morning to talk about the music program this fall. They are ready to go and have several new pieces of music picked out that will delight the choir. Rehearsals begin next Tuesday night at 7:00 p.m. and we never know who will show up. We have a great group of faithful members now. The following people have indicated they are coming back this year; Mary Brockway, Amy Rezendes, Susie Rothholz, Cindy Costa, Nancy Allen, Cynthia Strouse, Lori Lord, Rosie Rakowitz and Helen Walker as sopranos and altos. Oliver Bray, Shawn Rucker and I singing Baritone.
Several of the new anthems are variations of familiar hymns or praise songs that touch upon the idea of God's grace. We will mix in a few old favorites along the way too.
Adele picked out a very nice anthem for the Annual Choir Festival. It is always a lot of fun and is usually held on the second Sunday of November. It is also one of the highlights of our ecumenical life in the city of Norwich.
We will also be practicing advent and Christmas anthems before we know it. I have to confess that they are my favorite.
So if you like to sing and are looking for something fun to do this Fall, consider joining us on Tuesday nights. You don't have to be a member of the church. The only requirement is a desire to sing God's praises. While you are at it, invite a friend to come with you. They will thank you and it will only add to the fun.
