Hi Everyone,

It has been a while!

I thought you might be interested in THIS comment from All Angels on Facebook.

Hi Last night we sang at our manager's wedding and in a week or so we are singing in Prague and have two concerts in December in London at the Guildhall for the Royal British Legion Christmas concerts

It looks like they are performing for the Royal British Legion Christmas Celebrations at the Guildhall, London on Tuesday 11th and Wednesday 12th December.

I will try to get confirmation of these concerts.

Are these concerts open to the public, or are they only for British Legion members? Looks like you have to telephone or email for tickets.

Many thanks for the info Dazza.

John, I have emailed the address in Dazza's link asking about ticket availability and will let you know when I get a reply, hopefully soon :-)

I saw All Angels last night, performing in the Royal British Legion Christmas Celebration in the magnificent setting of the City of London Guildhall. The program comprised choral items, brass band music and carols for everyone to sing along, interspersed with some highly entertaining readings (alongside more traditional ones) presented by some well-known actors and personalities.

But of course the highlight was the Angels. They sang three songs – ‘Infant Holy’, ‘Ding Dong Merrily on High’ and ‘An Angel Cries’; all acapella. It’s hard to believe that it is over two years since I last saw them live, but they still have the power to lift me to amazing heights with their music.

In monetary terms, that works out at nearly £12 per song (and worth every penny) but what I experienced last night was priceless.
