'Twas the Night before Christmas...in an Historical Monument


Joyeux Noel!
Chouette! It's finally Noël in Paris (ENFIN!) and with all the chef-d’œuvres in this city, there's always room for a little art in one's holiday schedule.
Plans on Christmas Eve?
Well, there's no better way to spend the night before Christmas than in an artistic masterpiece! So, I headed down to the famous Église de la Madeleine for a Christmas Eve concert.

Yes, that's right...THIS is where I sat through a Christmas Eve mass and sang along (or eerrr tried) to holiday carols...

Here's a little video. (Although the choir is singing in French, I don't think you will have a problem recognizing the song.)
