[Magdalen] Good Friday

[Jay Weigel]

Did "All Glory, Laud and Honor" with the Lutherans this year. It's bad
enough they messed with the words, but their new hymnal screws with the
harmonies, too...and not in a good way. I didn't care, I belted out the
alto part I knew, and it didn't clash. No "Ride On, Ride On," and not
even "O Sacred Head"!  We were, however, treated to a fine rendition of
"The Holy City" by our big out-of-control tenor, who is really a quite
likeable guy, he just never learned to tone it down.
