Thanks in advance.

I have, what I call, an "upside down" church choir. While some people are looking for SAB music for small choirs I need WTB anthems for my small church choir (18 voices). I have pretty good basses and tenors but struggle with sopranos and altos.
We do traditional church music and I would apprec... |

| I'm looking for any recordings (professional or not) of Emma Lou Diemer's "Laughing Song" and/or "The Bells." Does anyone know of recordings. Dr. Diemer does not know of any available. Perhaps someone have a performance recording they could loan me.?
Thank you in advance.

| The Zoom is a GREAT machine. I use it at almost every rehearsal. Easy to use. The only draw back for me is that the screen is pretty small.

| I record almost everyone of my rehearsals particularly as we get closer to concert time. I have a small handheld "Zoom" on a mic stand and hit the record button off and on during rehearsals.
