There was no choir practice on Friday due to there being a concert in church. So we had to make do with a hurried practice of 'the Heavens are Telling' for ten minutes before the service, much to the consternation of the soloists. It was rather a rant but passed off well enough, although I think we could have done with a run-through of the final two pages which can tend to sound ragged. The soloists (or 'augmented' trio) sounded wonderful, with well-balanced voices.
There was no evensong so we enjoyed a rare break, although some of us attended a 'Come and Sing Evensong' workshop at another Creamtealand Church the day before. So many people are not used to singing Evensong at all any more, so we count ourselves very fortunate.
