December 19, 2020. Madison, Mississippi. Singing.

If for no other reason than listening to the singing on TV, Christmas really is the best time of the year. last year, i tagged along with the Sutherlands to attend the Festival of Lights, at Mississippi college. They call themselves The Mississippi College Singers. They sing unaccompanied. And they always sing in tune. The members ofthe choir are all students at MC. Most of them are music majors. And they sing like angels. i discovered them a few years ago when I was looking for music on TV. Eleanor had never heard of them so last year she bought tickets for all of us. This year they had no concert, due to the virus but on TV, they showed selected pieces from the past four years. I listened to 90 minutes of interesting music, some of which I heard last year. They sing tight, difficult harmony, and most were new to me. Of course, the students change but the choir remains about 35 in number. But they are wonderful. They also sing a Spring concert.
