( A rehearsal, so the cute Converse sneakers were allowed!)
Today a photograph from a rehearsal shortly before Lessons and Carols. This is the Choral Ensemble, an elite choir of students chosen from grades 4-8. Nationally recognized, they are as professional as any choir you will ever hear! The entire student body participates in the service, and I regret you cannot hear an audio clip but you can order CD's of the choir here.
DON'T FORGET !
I am giving away a Paris Through My Lens 2010 Calendar on my Paris Blog. Leave a comment there and let my know why you'd like to win! Bonne chance mes amis. Drawing is Christmas Eve.

I was just singing this tonight with my honey, but we didn't look this sweet.
This is great. Thanks for sharing.

The shoe is the only thing I see :)
Great title, I has hearing their high lovely voices in my head as I scrolled down and that angelic child was revealed and then continued to scroll until I reached her sneaker. This is such a great shot!
Bonjour Virginia! What a wonderful photo for advent! Our oldest daughter sings in the Schola Cantorum at church and we had our Lessons and Carols last week! Happy Advent regards from EAGAN daily photo
Joyeux Noel!
Oh Leif,
I thank thank you for the Advent wishes! I wish you could hear this choir and the entire school sing. Just amazing. Merci,
Brattcat,
Knew you would like this one. I had a better shot of just her feet that was precious but too blurry to use!
Petrea,
You and J might should audition for this choir! :)
Thérèse, HA!
J Bar, and a happy summer to you all!
Excellent capture of the spirit of their singing, Virginia!...and the sneakers: automatic smile!
;-)
«Louis» would love to hear them!
I wish you'd quit getting everyone's hopes up about the calendar when we already know who's going to win. Wink, wink.
I can see that it would be tempting to go for the sneaker full-frontal, but the low light would defeat me, too. I must go and get a f1.8 as a pressie for myself.
Lovely shot, nonetheless, VJ.
Children's choirs are special!
Yes, love the footwear! lol!
Love this shot V!!! They do look so angelic!!! I'm sorry she can't wear the sneakers for the final performance...they're classic!!!
Hiker,
So may I assume the check is in the mail???
Julie, The sneaker shot was fab, but couldn't use it. I hate blur!!!
finally I found an instance for the use of a DSLR with HD video capabilities. Still, I can't afford it.
Oh, my. I used to sing that in the Catholic school choir uncountable decades ago. The sneakers look good with the robe, though.
If I wore those to church when I was growing up, the nuns would condemn me to that place far below. How the times have changed.
Too cute!
