Later that evening, we got ready to attend the "Carols by Candlelight" concert hosted in Royal Albert Hall. It was simply magical. Mozart Festival Orchestra & Singers came out in 18th Century, Mozart-esque apparel...powdered wigs and all! Throughout their excellent performance, we (the audience) were invited to sing carols too, accompanied by the orchestra and piping hot organ! It was amazing! While singing the last carol, I paused to listen to all the voices around me. It was overpowering to hear 7000 voices of all denominations joined together, unitied, singing praises of gratitude for the birth of Christ. I hope in fifty years the same is still possible.
