I lead singing at a church which employs congregational singing (and
nothing else) as its musical part of worship. I know about one-sixth to
one quarter of the songs in the song book.
I can pick up a song very easily if I hear the melody, but learning by
reading (even though we use shaped notes in the songbooks) has always
been difficult for me. The last time I was asked to lead a new song I
fired up Sonix 2.0 (an old Amiga program) to learn it. I found out why
the song was obscure, and haven't led it since.
Regards,
John
