church is very ambitious this year. a cantata! so:
1. J1 and J2, hanging out with the youth worship band, are drafted to sing tenor and sop, respectively. there is an unbelieving twinkle in their eyes as they practise. indeed the predominant expression on the faces of the youth draftees is disbelief or dazedness.
2. i, a life-long alto, am promoted to sop, on account of there being sufficient altos. they need sopranos who can read notes. i can read. the tricky bit is singing what i read.
3. HOM now spends his sundays after service avoiding the choir, to preempt conscription.
all i say is, it takes courage, faith and a certain guilelessness to dare put up a cantata with such a disparate gaggle as us.
