I'll do it for $150!

Do you know what the Elvis Chapel would rent for? I know you did not include your air fare. I think I can still get by cheaper in the Elvis Chapel and an IPod. I can just hear her now, "Oh Daddy, how can I be Cinderella for a day in the Elvis Chapel with an IPod."

Which? Der Tag, der ist so freudenreich? Gelobet seist du, Jesu Christ? Von Himmel
hoch? Puer natus in Bethlehem? Von Himmel kam der Engel Schar? In dulci jubilo?

And what instruments? Where was this done? During your service?

Nemesio

An den Wasserflüssen Babylon (in an early and a later version)
Gott durch deine Güte / Gottes Sohn ist kommen
In dulci jubilo
Herzlich tut mich verlangen
Das alte Jahr vergangen ist

I think that's it. Instruments: Recorder (soprano/treble/tenor), oboe, violin, viola, cello, harpsichord, in varying combinations. We played them at home, just for fun. My brother (who is a musicologist) is studying them because he is lecturing on Bach's organ music (in his lectures he also plays the organ).

Oh! oh! And I saw a nordlys as you call it, just the other day. Awesome. It was like a smuthered ribbon stretching from one horizon to the next. Greenish. I guess in northern Sweden they see this more often than I do 'cause they weren't very impressed. hä hä 🙂

🙂 There must have been a wonderful multi-coloured nordlys here while I was in Germany, a colleague told me about it. 🙁

What was this thread about again?.. Right. RBHill.

Woops. I thought it was about LPs, Bach and the aurora borealis.

...and northern lights 🙂

oh, wait. I'm so embarrased. Aurora borealis is northern lights. Isn't it? 😳
