Um, did you read what I wrote? As a church, we’ve forgotten how to do that. In my choir, which includes about 12 trained voices, it took two weeks to get the feel of the chant, the right tone quality, pitch and rhythm. It’s not hard, but we have to relearn it - and then spice things up with anthems, motets, etc.

I reserve the absolute right to hijack any thread that mentions music and use it as an excuse to rant against Marty Haugen and company.

I thought that was a standing Free Republic rule.

(Or did the rules change during my absence for Lent?)
