It was pretty hard work and he enjoyed it but he became something totally different when he grew up and never sang professionally./ But he got such a good musical education that he has always had fun singing with others, being in choirs, and listening to music. As you say, a wonderful opportunity.Jenny Woolfhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16881781466502273314noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3212581401252445388.post-1967432955571703852015-12-11T16:20:01.939-06:002015-12-11T16:20:01.939-06:00That was lovely!

Ever...Once in Royal ... is my favorite carole too. Every Christmas Eve morning we tune in at 10 am on public radio to the live broadcast from Cambridge of Lessons and Caroles which is always started with that lone boy soprano. In 2014 when we visited London we went to evening vespers at Westminster Abby. We were near the front of the line so we were seated in the choir section. To our right were the boy altos and across the boy sopranos. The men's voices were seated behind each of those. It wasn't Christmas but still the music was splendid. Gave me chills and tears to hear it in such a historic setting.Marciahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00992626996077874832noreply@blogger.com
