There are people who can really sing beautifully. There are those that try their best to make a joyful noise. No matter what category you may fall into, singing is freeing. There is nothing like singing with just your own voice lifted high. There's also nothing quite like singing in a small group or choir in harmony. And, as I found in Canada, there's really nothing like singing in a congregation of 7400 a Capella
Most of the music was led by the bands with all instruments backing the song. It was typically just loud enough that you could only hear a voice right next to yours -barely. There were, though, times when the band dropped out on familiar songs. Then the lead vocalist would pull back from the microphone, and all that was left was a large group of people lifting their voices high, and as I said, there really is nothing like it. It was amazing. I hope you all have a chance to sing in such a choir.
