I was away this Sunday and also the one before - but I was confident that everything would go well in my absence. Though this year we had an innovation - a procession. I have long felt that we have an ideal processional route. One of Walpole's follies known as the Chapel in the Woods provides an obvious starting point and then there is the piazza to process across to the chapel. The practical aspect of this for the musicians was that because I was away I had prepared the leaflets at the beginning of Lent - and though I don't think I would have changed what was done it placed a possible parameter. In the event they sang the usual Hosannas but I gave the choir some verses from Psalm 23 to chant in between to fill out the procession.
