I think I have one chorister who looks at my dismal blog. Dave Allen entertained me as a kid. I loved watching him sit in his high chair, smoking and drinking. Dan, this is for you!

Choir can't sing?
One blogger states that it's not polite to discuss worship preferences. Well, if your congregation doesn't sing, I found another blogger who offers 12 excellent solutions!

What type of classical musician are you?
I enjoyed this one. Especially about the perfect hair and home cooked meals. Whoever created this really knows their stuff!

Evensong Webcasts
I've enjoyed listening to bbc radio 3's weekly Evensong broadcasts for about ten years now. I recently discovered a few others, which I like as well. They allow me to listen from my phone while I'm on the train, or out for a walk. The first is the choir of King's College, the other is St. Thomas, New York. King's offers valuable commentary before each recorded service, though St. Thomas' site has a nice calendar of events and daily web-casts. If you get a chance, I highly recommend King's October 13th webcast with selections from Mendelssohn's Elijah. The featured boy soloist is particularly outstanding.

Peter Philips on Conducting
I've had this one on Google Drive now for a while. It's a good thing to know when to lead and when to get out of the way. Peter Phillips' The Cult of the Conductor is one good essay. I feel renewed each time I read it.
