[ConorMacNessa]

Thanks alfa - we had our first rehearsal last Monday - the choir (250 ppl) is awesome!

[Kitty Mittens]

I Love Songs of Praise Going Up to our Blessed Lord; our Dear Savior be Lifted High, and His Wonderful Name Glorified!

I will Praise You, my God and King,
And Bless Your Name Each Day and Forever. (Ps.145:1)

Our Loving Lord be with you in a Powerful Way, Conor!

[La Enchiladita]

Thank you, Conor! That is an ambitious list of music, don’t think I know even half of it but sure I would love to hear it. It is wonderful to anticipate the visit of Benedict XVI to the U.S. Keep us posted.

[ConorMacNessa]

The Papal Mass music is listed on this thread - IIRC, you asked to be notified.

[freema]

You remembered! Oh, I would just love to hear the rehearsals!

I can’t sing anymore, unless it’s bass- too much football, basketball, and too many OoohRahs. But I still love to hear it.

This list looks about as long as the one for my wedding ; ) I had a choir, a pair of trumpets, and threw in a guitar and solo vocal just because I COULD! LOL!

What will you be wearing?

[ConorMacNessa]

We will wear dark trousers, white shirts and red ties. The choir sounded great at the first rehearsal.

[freema]

What a thrill!

[ConorMacNessa]

We're looking forward to it - its the biggest choir I've ever sung in at 250 people.

Eclectic selection

[ConorMacNessa]

Yes, very eclectic - I'm thankful for the Mozart - if it were up to me it would be much more traditional music, but I guess they have to appeal to a wide variety of tastes.

[baa39]

Yes, I think, musically speaking anyway, the Ave Verum will be the highlight. The program includes ALOT of music, will be fascinating.

[ConorMacNessa]

The Holst is good too - as is the Concertina on Grosser Gott.

[La Enchiladita]

LOL, freema...:)

Conor, I am bragging on you at church:)

[La Enchiladita]

I prefer more traditional music also, but some Catholics like the newer composers. I look forward to more updates, Conor Macnessa!!

[freema]

I could probably put some sexy blues on, but I don’t know how the Pope would take it! LOL!
