Space for Peace

The blip today just had to be this as I have been singing in Winchester Cathedral.

As a member of a Winchester Choir we take part each year in a service to mark the Jewish Holocaust Memorial Day - Space for Peace

It is a special event for many reasons:

1. It starts with massed choirs singing various chants that merge together into an amazing sound
2. The choirs then process (singing) to different places around the cathedral
3. Each choir sings their material when it seems right to do so
4. The chairs have been removed so that the audience can wander around listening to the choirs and of course the many different sounds inter mix
5. We then process back with lit candles trying not to burn anyone and sing en mass again

Smile factor:
I dropped the camera on the hard cathedral floor. The UV filter is badly smashed and I couldn't remove it. This photo was taken through the smashed glass. The filter is now off but I need to ensure that all the broken glass is out

Exercise:
Standing singing for 3 hours
