Manama Singers – carol concert –The Golden Tulip

I enjoyed the best afternoon of the year last Friday. I usually sit through the concerts forcing myself not to sing along, so as not to empty the hall; but The Peace On Earth and Good Will to All Carol Concert at The Golden Tulip Hotel Manama, had ‘Audience Participation’ written in the programme. What joy!
