I am not sure if it is because at this time of year it seems harder to sustain or as I have mentioned before that the Easter Season is more diffuse but even when more fully planned it seems less imaginative than Lent - that is the right word. We were unaccompanied today so that meant some of the planning had to be adjusted. Live on in my love I thinks sounds best a cappella.

It was a test of the Mass setting to see how it worked unaccompanied. It was the same last week and then you could hear the congregation joining. This week the disposition of voices was different so it was a question of was the harmony sustainable without accompaniment - it seemed to work.
