Songs & Updates for Saturday, October 14, 2017
This Saturday is the 28th Sunday in Ordinary Time.
Thanks for another solid Mass last week! Everything flowed very well. Father also complimented us on vocal harmonies (apparently, this was mentioned at the other Masses as well). There were a few songs where the tempo was perhaps a bit too fast, but that's on me.

Huge shout-out to Eva for being our sole instrumentalist last Saturday! Special thanks as well to the folks who stepped up to cantor the Psalm, Alleluia, and the first part of the Communion song!
Despite being short on musicians and a compressed rehearsal, we had a nice-sized group of singers and Mass ended up going pretty well.

Mass last week went pretty well. Thanks as always to everyone who was able to be there!
Tom, Lisa K. and I stick around after Mass to look at the songs for this week. The songs for October are still pending approval, but what I picked for this week is below. I'll let you know if there are any changes.

Songs & Updates for Saturday, October 11, 2014
This Saturday is the 28th Sunday in Ordinary Time.
Before mass last week, Jonathan and I met to plan rehearsal, discuss Choir affairs, and look over the songs selected for the next three weeks. Specifically, we reviewed several pieces for two weeks out, 'God Has Chosen Me' and 'Proclaim to All the Nations'. We also discussed taking 'Go Light Your World' up a half-step to make it easier to sing.
UPDATE (10/7): several pieces that we started work on/discussed last week (namely, 'God Has Chosen Me', 'Go Light Your World', 'Bring Forth the Kingdom', and 'City of God') were nixed per Father's request. I'll try to reprogram these for a later date.
Mass seemed to go pretty smoothly considering we only had a handful of people. Nice job, all!
We ended up making some changes to the arrangement of 'Pan de Vida' after accidentally hitting on the idea of slowing down the extended intro considerably and then speeding the tempo back up before the voices come in. In light of this and how long Communion has taken the past few weeks, we will likely not need to go into 'Lord, When You Came' as a second Communion song.

Karina is out this week and next (10/12 & 10/19) due to other commitments. Jonathan is also out the next two weeks in a brief extension of his summer music tour. They should both be back on the 26th.
