I would not delay as other members may have already had their feelings hurt over a matter that should be uplifting, not denigrating because somebody has no sense of musical edification. Just don't demonize the bishop, but make certain the SP knows you're trying to do what's best for the congregation on a sticky issue.
Thanks for the encouragement - your comments have motivated me to schedule a meeting. The thought of a discussion with the SP is intimidating, but this issue is important.

Who would have thought - CG as a source of hope!
