Christmas church event




On the 23rd of December I went to an event organised by the church. All people gather in church to sing together the prettiest Christmas songs. So I went there to sing along with the others both because it's a finnish tradition and because I wanted to go and sing. It's a very popular event all around Finland and throughout this event money is collected for charity. Last year 600 000 € were made thanks to this nice and pleasant event. Doing music to gain money for charity is also a very good reason to go to this happening. It was a nice event as all people gathered to celebrate together an important time of the year, Christmas, to do something that a lot of people enjoy, singing! About 18 songs were sang. Some of the songs were very familiar as I've sang them since a young age others were a positive discovery. The women playing the organ wasn't one of my favourites. I think she played oddly, using different registers in a weird way, and I noticed quite a few mistakes.
