Singing Our Way Through Prague

Jenny, Karen, Elise, Sunjin, Andrew and Angela McKeown (choir leader sporting a blue tuque from Guelph, Ontario)

The first part of my trip to Europe was spent with this select group of honor students from TCIS. Even though the kids worked hard in many rehearsals, we had enough time to see the sights of Prague and then enjoy a few performances of the 105-voice choir in a cathedral-turned-music hall at the end of the week. International Schools from all over Europe, Asia, Russia and even Central America participated. I definitely won't forget one of the performances held at St. Simon and St. Jude on Sunday January 27, 2008 (shown below). What an incredible way to spend a Sunday afternoon!
