<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">That's exactly the story they told. They explained about the Austrian church organist whose pipes froze, and he wrote a 6-stanza poem to be read on Christmas Eve. His friend composed a simple melody. And now it's a world-famous Christmas carol! A girl sang it first in its original language and then they all sang it in English. The Las Posadas and St. Lucia songs were both translated after the first verse as well, which is different than on the CD. It was really nice to be able to understand them.

They also tell the story of Silent Night and sing in German. It's one of my favorite songs on a very awesome CD! :warm fuzzy happy holiday memories:Originally posted by AG*dancer*:

Glad you had a great time, Gabby, and the Holiday Show sounds really nice.
Out of curiosity - as "Silent Night" is an Austrian Christmas Song, which story did they tell?
Thanks for the compliments on the picture. My cousin was so excited to be matching Samantha, and I was just as happy to follow them taking pictures. [img]wink.gif[/img]
Lara, have a great time at AGP! Kailey and her friends will love the show, it's really great.
