In keeping with my resolve to make the most of our sojourn to the UK, Dick, Andrew and I planned a visit to the Royal Albert Hall. We went to hear Carmina Burana performed by the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, the Royal Choral Society, the London Philharmonic Choir, the English Concert Chorus, The Southend Boys' Choir. I will not pretend that I knew what I was about. I was just out for a different experience and this performance certainly filled the bill. I chose this photo by Cormac 70 from the Flickr site as it recreates what we experienced last Saturday.
The programme was varied. There were three items. The first piece was an orchestral piece, the second featured the Hall's very impressive organ and the third was choral. I don't know enough about music to discuss the merits of the performance but the sounds were harmonious, pleasant and thoroughly enjoyable.
