Wow, CT64 ... an ambitious schedule of music there.
Churches here are far and few between that will take on that amount of music, let alone have it scheduled this far in advance.

I'm certain it will be wonderful music ... and wish I could be there, too.

sounds great.. wish I could be there to listen.I enjoy your comments and sharing of your vast knowledge in the forums.

Thank you :tiphat:
It will be part of the Sunday morning worship service in lieu of the sermon/homily.

I have no idea what the Methodist church will dish up. Last year we
celebrated the local church's first Ash Wednesday and then some.
This year we will be doing an Easter Cantata and I'm in the choir.

I have no idea Krummhorn. That I will need to check into when I go to
practice again. It's been a while. I love that one by Bach. But the
leader might have us doing something else.

That's cool, Judy ... Great that you are in the choir. A wonderful way to serve the church and appreciated by many people.

The Bach is a bugger though ... for rehearsals, since the choral parts are so inter-mingled, the choir director plays the womens parts on the piano and I do the mens parts on the organ at rehearsal. And, we're doing it in German, too.

I now need to start working on the organ continuo part - I can whip that into shape in a couple weeks.
