Concert Highlights!!!


No words can possible describe the excitement of the concert on Tuesday night! When we first arrived we were in our usual state of pre-concert excitement, and as the people filtered in over the next hour our anxiety and excitement grew, its like we knew that this was going to be an important and wonderful concert. After our first embarrassing walk out (half hour to early) we finally walked out to a full house/church on time and started with much enthusiasm with Java Jive!! The atmosphere grew more electric the further we progressed into our concert! As we neared the end of the programme we received our first standing ovation for Chorus of the Hebrew Slaves i think it was mostly for Alex's brilliant accompaniment but it was still a rush for all of us! Then after every song we received another standing ovation!!! Our first encore was Over The Rainbow the we were called back on stage for yet another encore - Putting on the Ritz - and another standing ovation!!! When we sang this it was with so much energy and joy that you could see the audience responding. We were each presented with a beautiful red rose, and still the applause continued, i think this is the highlight of the tour for all of us so far. We signed autographes afterwards and then continued to a 2 Michelin Star Restaraunt (the best restaraunt in Germany). Where we were wined & dined by the Reverend of the church we just sang in. He then took us on a tour of the church, and a few of us climbed up into the tower. It was a most spectacular view. I think it will be hard to top this night :)
