My former choir directors always called Shape Note singing "Sacred Harp." I like that we would sing from lots of different traditions, the Swahili hymn "Bwana Awabariki" for an associate rector retiring (she had served in Kenya as a new ordinate) and from the soundtrack of
The Mission "Vita Nostre" for a departing rector who adored the movie. It was a privilege to sing with these folks at GSLEC, and they sang at my wedding.
