Songs & Updates for Saturday, April 22, 2017


This Saturday is the 2nd Sunday of Easter.
Thanks to all who were able to sing or play during Holy Week! From a music standpoint, I would say it was a success! Good Friday and Easter Sunday went very well, and Holy Thursday and the Easter Vigil were beautiful as always.

Special shout-out to Tim, Eva, Frances and her friend Erica for the big role they played in pulling together Good Friday. The same goes for the guitarists, who were able to nail the Storrington Mass accompaniment on Easter Sunday. We haven't done this Setting without piano before, so it's good to know that we can pull it off either way.

Our Good Friday prelude, Who is That Man?, was a lovely little piece that we should revisit when we have more time, and Wade in the Water was a fun change in pace for the Sprinkling Rite.

Also, special congratulations are in order for Tim, who officially became a member of the Catholic Church at the Easter Vigil.

As we begin to wrap up the Easter season, things should (more-or-less) return to normal until we hit Advent/Christmas in November. We'll definitely need to sort out coverage for the summer, though, with several core folks out for extended periods. More on this later, but if you already know what your availability looks like, please give me a heads up now so we can plan accordingly. I'm hoping to have the music for May selected in the next week or so.

Jim is out this week. Also, a reminder that I'll be tied up next Saturday, 04/29. Eva will be covering.

UPDATE: 04/20: Tim is also out. Jonathan is available to play guitar.
