Abigail is like her mom in many ways, and one is her love of music. She decided last week that we need to crank out the Christmas tunes, though we aren't even decorating our house till after Thanksgiving. Her request was for the "Christmas Rock CD" and though I knew what she meant, it still made me laugh. We adore Trans-Siberian Orchestra and love listening to their music, and though it's been 11 m
onths since we have heard it, Abigail hadn't forgotten her favorite, "the electric guitar song." It's actually called Wizards in Winter, and is commonly known as 'the song that guy programmed his outdoor Christmas lights to' and was all over the news a few years back. They are an amazing, non-traditional orchestra, with a lot of rock concert elements thrown in, like pyrotechnics and laser lighting. The musicians are so talented, and their shows are unique, powerful, and moving. We've seen them in concert twice. If you haven't, please watch a clip later on YouTube (maybe this one) to get an idea of what they are like.Meanwhile, you can enjoy Abigail's appreciation in a video clip here, as well as a few photos. And, yes, Elijah was a little scared, and no, I'm not nearly as uninhibited in my enjoyment of them.
