Thread Name: Music for Good Friday
Subject: RE: Music for Good Friday
Our choir's favorite is Behold the Wood, by Milwaukee boy Dan Schutte, a former member of the St. Louis Jesuits. We do it with piano, which sounds better to me - and there's a great bass/baritone part that allows for a suitable display of machismo.

I'm glad we don't have restrictions on alcohol on Good Friday. I was mighty dry after the long liturgy at noon. I needed gin, sushi, and a good nap to be in good voice for the evening Taize service.
Cheers!
