Stress, that is. Canon Sweet is applying the thumscrews-of-doom. Longstowe is a parish Selwyn is slightly responsible for, and all of their organists are elsewhere on Easter Sunday, so they want me to play. I've not been very near an organ in ages, and I'm away for a fair chunk of the time between now and then. I wonder if pleading to Girton's priest will mean they'll let me practice...
Canon Sweet does know I was never very good, and that I've not played in years, so they must be pretty desperate...
They apparantly will take any hymns I like, from A+M (NS). Presumably that would be 79 (Jesus Christ is Risen Today), 428 (Thine be the glory), 75 (The Day of Resurrection) and maybe 78 (The strife is o'er). I quite like 82 (Jesus lives! Thy terrors now) as well, but they presumably don't want that many hymns...
Presumably they'll also want a voluntary (I'm not sure I have any suitably festive ones). What else are they likely to spring on me, I wonder?
