Messiah by Georg Friedrich Handel is a beautiful, powerful musical masterpiece that can lift you up, carry you away to the clouds or send you into deep contemplation of the Heaven.  Such an inspirational piece of art!

At Christ Church Cathedral in Lexington where we go to church, it is a tradition that the Messiah is performed live every year during the Advent weeks.  We braved the wet and cold weather for this concert and it was so worth it.

Inside the cathedral, it was warm, bright, tastefully decorated and the singing was amazing from start to when we had to leave for the kids’ bedtime.

We hope we can attend the full concert next year when baby James is a year older.
