Just for Fun: The "Big" Piano

MEANWHILE, BACH AT FAO SCHWARTZ...

How's Your LSB?

It has been around 3 years since Lutheran Service Book (LSB) first hit the pews.

Kantor Phil Magness has a good discussion going on at Fine Tuning that includes a "self-diagnostic tool."

Chime in on how it's going in your congregation in the following areas:

• A Hymn that Is Proving to Be As Good As First Thought
• A Hymn that Hasn't Met Expectations
• A Hymn that Worked Surprisingly Well
• A Hymn We Haven't Sung Yet, But Will

Read more on the post, but as a preview I chose the following for the above categories:

• ...As Good As First Thought: 411, "I Want to Walk as a Child of the Light"
• ...Hasn't Met Expectations: 521, "Christ, the Lord of Hosts, Unshaken" (love the text, the tune is not catching on in my parish) 
• ...Works Surprisingly Well: Nunc Dimittis (Page 211 and Hymn 937)
• ...Haven't Sung Yet, but Will: 957, "Our Father Who Art In Heaven."
