Hello everyone...
It's been more than a month that I could not open my blog... there has been a problem with my email account password. Eventually I can manage the problems.
I have missed a lot of stories to tell here.... Too many stories to write here... Well, let me write some things that I still remember.
First... Assignment on Palm Sunday.
I cannot say that it was a success. Not at all... There were some problems that made the choir assignment unable to be done well. We found that the sound system did not reach us when we entered the church... during the procession. When we reached the choir bench, we still heard some songs sung by Pak Susilo and Pak Simon, but it did not sound loud... I was confused.. whether or not to continue singing with another song. Next time... it will be good if the choir sings 1-3 verses, then we stop the song and change to another song.
Second... Good Friday
Exultate had to sing at St Fransiskus Sukasari Church at 18.00. In general it ran well. For the first time in this church, the songs were sung without musical instruments... a capella. I think we could do it. Mas Susilo, Mas Gago and Mas Tingtung performed the Passio well... The problem happended because we lacked enough practice before.
Third... Easter Eve
Some Exultate members joined the BMV Parish Choir... We did. Pak Marhadi and I directed the choir. There was a problem as Mas Markus Herli could not join us as he had to sing in Cibinong parish. I had to sing two responsorial psalms; the other one was sung by Mbak Rina. BMV Choir could also sing "And the Glory of the Lord".
Fourth... Easter Sunday
Some members helped St Theresia BRP Choir to sing at 7-o'clock mass. The day before, Mas Gago, drg Cisca, dr Ika, Mbak Lia, Bu Evie and Bu Heri had joined the practice at Pak Totok's house in Bogor Raya Permai. Pak Simon did not join the practice on Saturday as he was not fit, but on Sunday, he joined and gave great help.
Well, it is good again to wish you all: HAPPY EASTER...
