The Kings Singers Speak German, too!

Frankfurt Alte Opera House
I wish we knew the history of this building: the outside looks historic, but the inside looks quite modern.
The organ (not used tonight), but interesting. The small box below the pipes pulls out to make the keyboard.
We had front row seats!!!
Our whole family are devoted fans of the Kings Singers, since we've been attending Kings Singers Concerts (in Utah) for about 30 years! Many times we sacrificed in order to take our six children to hear their high quality music, and highly entertaining performances.
This is the last time we'll get to hear David Hurley, Counter Tenor on far left, as he is retiring in August after 25 years with the group. He's the last of the "old guys."
It was a good program, but the best part was when they put the music away and sang from the old favorites!
Several of them read introductions of the songs in German, but the one on the far right speaks fluent German.

Missed hearing their English accents tonight, but their music was wonderful, as always!
We never imagined that we'd get to hear the Kings Singers twice in Germany (Wiesbaden and Frankfurt)!!!
