Choir

My oldest son tried out for, and was accepted to, his elementary honor choir. It was all a bit surprising as he wasn't much of a singer. Our assumption is that he wanted to participate in any activity that let him stay after school and hang out with other kids. Choir, team handball, slug taxonomy, if he could stay and hang out it all sounds good to him.
In the end it really did sound good. Given a few weeks of practice, an optimistic young choir teacher can take 100 singers of moderate ability and blend them all together to produce something that's enjoyable to listen to. The whole was truly more than the sum of it's parts. I hope you enjoy it.
