What Christmas is truly about

From a beautiful piece called "A Ceremony of Carols", written by Benjamin Britten.

My high school presented "Ceremony of Carols" for Christmas 0f 1961. I was 15, and was one of several soloists. That remains a fine memory!

The following year, I played the mother in Gian Carlo Menotti's "Amahl and the Night Visitors", which became an even greater memory!

Ah, the olden days!
