We were only up by the speaker for our two anthems. Dad was in back of the speaker and to the side, and heard it fine. The rest of the time we were obliquely away from the speaker and also did all right. I think some of the harder-of-hearing folks would have had trouble.</p> <p>The other trick was that I was standing right in front of the speaker for only a short time, and during that time the main purpose of the amplified sound was so that the choir could hear it. Tim wanted the choir to be heard over the keyboard, so it wasn't blasting. As I said, it wasn't perfect for me, as I had a hard time hearing the rest of the choir. But for an outdoor event, I think it went just great.</p>tag:sursumcorda.salemsattic.com,2018:/isso/692/27362012-10-08T12:04:51ZIrishOboe<p>I almost can't believe that last sentence. Could anyone else hear anything? I'm so happy that you're singing music you love at a volume you can take!</p>
