Christmas Concerts in Tuscany

Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way ... Last Christmas I gave you my heart... like every year in December to these songs are again in many shops and supermarkets and even from the speakers in the main shopping streets citizen to become a sort of soundtrack of life for many of us. Cities become a decorated party where snowflakes and garlands descend from above illuminating streets and squares, and what we get is a Christmas atmosphere somewhat 'cold', as the temperature of this period, for my taste. The spirit of Christmas more authentic, I feel in markets in the teeming with people and sifting through the stalls where the smell of crunchy mixes with the colors of objects, ninnoli, statuettes of the crib, decorations...

But the essential ingredient in creating the magical atmosphere and warm Christmas in my view is represented by the traditional Christmas song intoned by several choirs in many churches. In Tuscany busy calendar of events to be included is already party to some great concerts like the one held on 13 in the Cathedral of Pisa where for just over an hour have echoed the melody composed by Haydn and beautifully interpreted by the Choir and Camerata of Cremona dall'Orchestra Philharmonic Italiana. What if it is lost do not worry, the opportunity to build and is not lacking among the next Christmas concerts there some point, all free, where classical music and gospel choirs are from the owner.
