Went to Exeter Cathedral yesterday evening for the core choir rehearsal - my ears were just as blocked so had to position myself carefully (next to a Cathedral Voluntary Choir member - if she can't be heard then God help the rest of us...). Gordon Stewart was up to his usual amazing verbal tricks to keep us alert throughout the 2 hour practice. David Ogden's anthem and the African music are going to be good. It's great to sing in the Chapter House - I'm sure it is the accoustic and not our singing which made everything go so well. Quite a lot of boy and girl trebles as well as adults, but as usual the tenors were in the shortest supply - need to market Devon as a desirable place to live to the Welsh :) I'm looking forward to recording day, on 10th May, now, although I'm sure it will be hard work.
