It's A Date!

The Christmas Concert is now set for Tuesday, December 31 from 4:00 to 5:30pm, with Mass beginning at 6:00pm.  Yes, that's New Year's Eve Day.  One of my coworkers asked if, since we're Catholic, he could bring a flask.

There are a zillion details to be figured out, but we will work on that.  I would love to figure out a way to record it in a semi-professional manner.  A camcorder with a very good microphone or can accept a good microphone would probably be acceptable, if you have one or know someone who does.

We have to get the program down to 90 minutes - the song list is probably closer to 2 hours as it stands, including the organ interludes & especially if the bell choir plays a few pieces.  We could scrap a couple of the chant Antiphons & maybe a couple of carols, but not too many.

Our practices are going well!  If you still need some inspiration, I found this at the Chant Cafe:

These young ladies are doing almost exactly what we are aiming to do: learn, love, & share the beauty of genuine Catholic sacred song for the good of souls (incl. our own!) & the glory of God.  The future looks lovely!

Practice hard; see you on Tuesday.

"Become a saint!"
