This past weekend, ECA had the opportunity to host a select group of musicians from 9 international Christian high schools in Europe who came together to perform 2 concerts in the Madrid area. There were about 45 students; and Emily also got to be a part of this special group of students. They rehearsed about 13 hours in 2 days, and then performed a concert at the Camarma City Hall and at a Cathedral in a suburb of Madrid. One of the highlights for the group was the hour long bus ride home from the second concert, on their final night here. The bus was filled with singing as these kids celebrated their common love for music - singing everything from silly songs from Veggie Tales to well known hymns and contemporary songs. I am pretty sure their bus driver will never forget them. In addition to blessing these communities with their concerts, these kids left a strong impression on many locals who commented on their discipline and mature behavior. Here is the end of the first song that they sang in Camarma. They started out standing around the auditorium, then sang the rest of the concert from the risers in front.
