There are two music performances that I never tire of hearing at Christmas. One is Handel's Messiah
and the other is the Trans Siberian Orchestra. I love Christmas Eve in Sarajevo.
Go here to read the story behind it, and here to see the other video which shows a bit of the TSO story.
I would happily go to both of them in concert every Christmas season. Sadly, I've never been to a TSO concert at all, and the last time I heard Handel's Messiah live was when the Engineer still sang with the symphony, and THAT was a loooong time ago.
Two quite different styles of music, but two stories that very much tell the story of Christmas. Hope. Joy. Giving.
Merry Christmas, my friends!
Both of those are my fave's too!! ~Thanks for sharing ~Merry Christmas Love Heather
