Hi Everyone,
I have arrived back after spending the night in Huddersfield.
The concert was absolutely fantastic and I really enjoyed it. To be honest I was just expecting a load of Christmas songs but it was a good show lasting over two hours with a mixture of Christmas and non Christmas songs and pieces and there was a lot of audience involvement too where we had to join in in the singing of some of the carols.
I was especially impressed with the 'Sellers International Youth Band', they were absolutely superb, I really enjoyed listening to them play and it was refreshing to see so many talented youngsters.
All Angels were wonderful once again, this was the third time that I had seen them perform, the second in three days and for me they seem to get better each time. Here is the set list...
Sound of Silence
Barcarolle
Silent Night
In Paradisum
Singing You Through
INTERVAL
Flower Duet
Ding Dong Merrily on High
Nothing Compares 2 U
The Angel Gabriel
Song Bird
White Christmas
Once again it was 'Singing You Through' which stood out for me but all the songs were fantastic, and they also did their version of 'White Christmas' again which is a bit different but absolutely fantastic and the girls really enjoy performing it.
The girls were accompanied by the same string quartet as they were in Birmingham, which I now know as the 'Con Spirito String Quartet', they were once again fantastic.
Unfortunatly we weren't allowed to take pictures during the concert but after the show the girls did a signing where I got to meet them once again, we stood back waiting for the crowd to go down so we had more time with them, they recognised me again and I spoke to them a bit more, I also had my picture taken with them as well.
Hopefully from now at future concerts I will be able to take many more pictures as I will be having a new and better camera for Christmas.
If anybody is interested I can post up the full program of all the carols, songs and pieces performed on the night.
When I get time later I will post scans of the program as well as the CD's which I got signed.
