Lol. Yeah, we did one out of that book a couple of weeks ago and it had all these accidentals and syncopation... definitely not easy. But that’s a happy mischaracterization. Most of us like a challenge.
More trouble with the Pange Lingua at Good Friday service today. We were supposed to wait until the end of the Veneration to start it, actually we finished The Reproaches too early because we didn’t do the text verses, and someone in the Congregation started singing it, and the choir didn’t know whether to follow the upstart in the Nave or not, so many of us stood there stone faced.
It was the same person that started it in Latin last night after we finished the English version. I appreciate the enthusiasm, but it shows us up. Gonna have to proscribe that person.
Don’t proscribe him . . . DRAFT HIM!
