The Singers Thread

My new church has asked me to sing something at a function this weekend - so i'll be performing "Come Unto Him" from the Messiah (since it has to be something sacred). It's something i've performed so many times that two days of re-preparation is realistic, and it won't be too hard on the accompanist, as well. It's amazing what can fall in your lap once people know you sing.

ETA, of course though, it's not seasonal. I also have the Mozart "Alleluia" and Haydn's "With Verdure Clad" (from the Creation), and my first thought was the latter since it's not tied to any one season, but both would be just awful at last minute for the accompanist..

Any thoughts?
