Well, I'm glad I dragged myself back out for that. The service was more traditional (I suppose) and harder to follow (not only no musical notation, but no words, even), and all of the people around me seemed to know just what they were doing; but the music beforehand was great - both choir and organ. The inside of the church (basilica? cathedral? what is the difference between all of these? are they interchangeable?) was certainly decorative, though in a rather ugly Wedgewood and wedding cake kind of a way.
Does everyone else know "Minuit chrétiens" already? The choir two days ago sang it, and I heard it again tonight. What lovely music.
Merry Christmas, all of you.
