Singing in Haverö, take two

[karinfromnosund]

It has been a very long time since I last attended a church service. I suspect it may have been my sister's confirmation, fifteen years ago. Next time, I should try to remember beforehand that they will have a collection.

Apart from that, I don't think I did anything stupid or inappropriate. We sang five songs, and four psalms in addition to that. There was even a congregation, about twenty bodies plus choir etc (I can't say anything for sure about souls). This was apparently considered good.

The last time I went to a church was Easter Sunday with friends, and it was pretty much packed. You cannot possibly have been worse than their choir; which was pretty awful - the congregation sings much better!

That was also the moment I realised that I haven't been cold-reading anyhing I wanted to sing for, well, around twenty years and I have totally lost the skill of relating notes to tones coming out of my throat. I was ok picking things up from people around me (particularly my super-talented friend), but not reading them.
