At the same time the Sage concert hall in Gateshead opened and, naturally, we have a special love of this iconic buildings and its position on the Gateshead Quays. On Saturday we attended a Christmas concert given by Inspiration, the choir to which our village choir, Scherzo, is affiliated.
The foyer of the hall was packed as various activities vied for space. The concert itself was an unforgettable experience. The choir numbered over 300 People and they were accompanied by The Royal Northern Sinfonia. The music was moving, spiritually as well in musicality, and the readings complemented the music.
For us, it was the perfect way to make the transition from Advent to Christmas.
