Charlotte Symphony is doing Sleigh Ride at our concert this weekend... Terribly excited about that.  The rest, not so much.  O Holy Night with a girl who sounds like a lounge singer & a drumset backing her up.  Bah!  Also unintentionally hilarious: Mary's Boy Child.  First of all, that should NEVER be a choral arrangement.  Second, it should only be sung by someone with excellent jazz/gospel skills.  On top of that, Maestro has decided he wants us to CLAP the last page.  It must have escaped his attention that we are a choir of 147 whites, 1 Latina, and 2 blacks.  We ain't got THAT kind of rhythm.
