St Martin-in-the-Fields - 27 October 2005

My wife and I were recently on holiday in London. Prior to our departure, I went on line to find an activity to keep us awake on the evening of our arrival from New York. I am an avocational singer, singing with the Oratorio Society of New York since 1980. Naturally, I thought a concert of choral music in a good venue would be ideal. The worst it could be was muddy, but a way to pass the time.  After an overnight flight, a day walking throughout London and dinner in the crypt, we took our seats in the church. When the sopranos made their first entrance sounding as if they were one person, I knew we were in for a treat. I cannot tell you how much we enjoyed your singing. The music was beautiful and alive, especially the Vivaldi Gloria. You made that old war horse exciting and vital.

Thank you for starting our time in London in a place of musical beauty.
