An Embarrassing Situation in Eglise Notre-Dame de l'Assomption, Gimont, France
The Host pipe organ tour group was scheduled tor an organ demonstration which was the same time a funeral was scheduled. A compromise was agreed that the funeral would be delayed by about 30 minutes & the tour group would leave early. The mourners were not aware of the change & arrived for the funeral to find strangers in the church playing on the organ. The tour group overstayed it's visit with 200 villagers standing in the street waiting to get into the church & waiting for the deceased to arrive for the funeral.
This photo shows members of the Host pipe organ tour group lounging & sleeping in the church. I was embarrassed to be in the church as there were mourners that had arrived in the church for the delayed funeral.
