Each December since 2013, I've made at least one call to a Dial-A-Carol service. Each year, carolers with varying levels of singing ability do their best to fulfill my requests. Bravo to caroler Matthew, who belted out a pitch-perfect rendition of "Hark! The Herald Angels Sing" last night and the chorus of anonymous women who maintained an impressive level of enthusiasm through three verses of "Joy To The World" this afternoon.
Kudos to those carolers for having the courage and confidence to sing for strangers over the phone. I can't imagine doing that, so I applaud their gumption.
