Mini-Orchestra

February 20, 2007 at 10:00 PM

This Sunday we're going to have an evangelist family at our church, here's a list of the instruments they play:
Guitar
Mandolin
Violin
Flute
Recorder
Piano

They all play their instruments very well. I'm just schocked. Only three of the instruments are used in congregational singing, guitar, mandolin, and piano.
But this will make our mini-orchestra the biggest ever.
Piano, maybe two
Clarinet
Violin (ME)
Guitar
Mandolin

I'm so excited! We'll skip the grand pino stuff this time.
