Christmas carols à Lyon

Having missed my annual trip to my old school’s Christmas carol concert last week, Cath booked tickets to a Lyon equivalent in Basilique Saint Bonaventure.

It featured the Lyon Opera orchestra and children’s choir and there were some recognisable Christmas favourites such as In the Bleak Midwinter.

It isn’t bleak in Lyon but there are frosty winds that would make you moan if you weren’t layered up.

Coats stayed on inside the church

However this concert warmed the cockles and the children’s choir were very good. I missed the audience participation side of things but it was a lovely festive evening.
