I’ve never been a great singer, but I sang in choir at our first church. My choir escapades are epic, actually. An Easter Sunday cantata in which I sang a long, strong high note right in front of the microphone—and burped. Oh, yes. One of my finest moments. It was at a Christmas cantata with … Read More
