We also had some issues with feedback over the sound system, probably due to some adjustments made by musicians from OLV who covered a wedding earlier that afternoon. Adjusting one of the dials behind the board seemed to get rid of the problem.
Ginny and I stuck around after mass to look at a few songs for this Saturday with Cindy, including 'All the Ends of the Earth', 'In This Place', and 'With One Voice'.
Our Psalm this week is once again 'This is the Day'. Since it sounds like it's my turn, I'll plan to cantor this unless anyone else wants to take it. We'll continue using this Psalm through Pentecost -- the Saturday after that, we should be back to using the suggested psalm each week.
For 'Resucito', we finally incorporated the piano part that we started experimenting with around Easter Sunday. I opted to start it at a slower tempo to make sure we could keep it together, but Father increased it after only a few bars and we where able to hold that tempo for the rest of the song.
Also, at Maggie's suggestion, we tried adding in an egg shaker on the Psalm and 'Resucito'. This seemed to help us maintain a steady tempo, especially in the case of the Psalm. I'd recommend we do this going forward on any songs where we have issues with the tempo and it's appropriate.
Karina and Jim are out this week.
There will be practice after mass from 6:30-8:30 PM. Maggie volunteered to bring dinner.
