I had the fortune of being surrounded by this incredible music when my school put on a performance of the Messiah one year.
Sadly, because of the religious content of the lyrics, I made the decision not to take part in the singing even though my teachers insisted I attended every rehearsal and the final performance.
I remember my heart swelling as the wonderful sound filled the great hall around me and I wished I could have been part of that collective voice.

Xanthippe
I went to hear it in Lichfield cathedral soon after leaving the Borg. The words meant a lot to me at the time. I do prefer to listen to classical music now when I'm at home or in the car, I got fed up with pop music.
