Notes held too long

I have been listening to the "Music and the Spoken Word" broadcast for decades — especially when my worldly duties keep me from attending church. Today, I found that I again began squirming around in my chair while listening to the wonderful Mormon Tabernacle Choir holding that last note out way — and I mean WAY — too long. I timed the last note on the closing hymn "High On A Mountain Top" this morning. It lasted exactly 15 seconds.
