"A Gift Of Music" - Woodland Chamber Singers' 35th Annual Christmas Concert

Sunday evening, Sally invited me to see "A Gift Of Music" - Woodland Chamber Singers' 35th Annual Christmas Concert, at the Woodland Opera House.

Lots of people began lining up early. This is what the line looked like at 6:50 p.m. At 7 p.m., it began raining, but the doors weren't quite open yet. Open, open, open!

It was very pleasant concert (marred a bit by vociferous tots, but whatcha-gonna-do?) The song I liked the best was "The Hands of Winter", in part because I don't believe I've ever heard it before.

The woman next to me leaned over and said, "that man singing behind us sure has a nice voice!" And she was right! The voice was rich and beautiful. But who was the mysterious man with the great voice?

Turns out, the mysterious man was Ryan Favorite, on holiday from school in Boston! Ryan's serving at the Cheesecake Factory while he's here, and preparing for an opera-singing education in NYC when he returns to the East Coast.
