Hearts to Heaven and Voices Raise

Provided the numbers don't drop below six, I told Neil who organises the choir, we can give it another go. Sadly that was becoming a tall order even before the pandemic, and I really don't want to repeat choir processions which only have two or three people in them: six seems a not unreasonable minimum, especially if they're going to spread out a bit among the stalls, bearing in mind we're still supposed to be sensible. 

This evening the choir reconvened for the first time since March 2020. Or was it February? Did we suspend it even before the lockdown? I can't remember. In the event we had precisely six singers, and they made a rather pleasing noise, knowing 'Ave Verum Corpus' pretty well. I found myself borne up by the vocal waves and that was good to experience again. Surprising how much sound a modest group of voices can produce.
