Courtney already posted this on her blog for me, but I thought I would also put it here. This was the Sunday after Thanksgiving, when the Metropolitan visited our Parish. Jenny, Heather, Karen and I were chosen to sing the “Eis Polla Despota” (Translates to something like, “”We hope you live a really long time!”) , which is only sung in a Hierarchacal liturgy.
SO here’s the clip of us singing. Mind you, we were scared STIFF- I think I actually blacked out for part of it. So we didn’t do as well as when we practiced. But it’s pretty, especially when the whole congregation joins for the 2nd verse, just the men in the altar for the 3rd, and then the whole congregation again.
Here are two versions of other congregations doing the same thing, if you want to compare us 🙂
