To get a bit of a change from the (in cases) slightly dry day to day work in the office, I’ve joined two choirs a wee while back — a church choir and a gos­pel choir. I just love them and can’t wait for Tues­days and Wed­nes­days to get my voice going again (I’m singing bass, for those who are curi­ous).

Last Sunday, we had a con­cert in my local church. We sang a “Kantate” by Johann Sebastian Bach, and the “His­toria der Geburt Jesu” by Hein­rich Schchütz, which I both liked a lot.

To my surp­ise, our church (isn’t it impress­ive that even for the curch there is a wiki­pe­dia art­icle?!) was pretty much full! Wow. They must have some­how known in advance that I was singing ;-) Nah, not really, I guess…

Dad always thought laughter was the best medi­cine, which I guess is why sev­eral of us died of tuberculosis.
