it's at the end of the video Maggie posted but you can't acutally hear them singing it..
.... there are soooooo many people singing it and they are only shown for a short moment
It is the last 2 minutes of the Gala.
The carol "Froehliche Weihnachten ueberall" brings back happy memories for me.....
I was in Austria with my brother Terry on a skiing holiday....by the way, Christmas and New Year is a fabulous time
to be in Austria or Bavaria! We were staying in a typical Tyrolean hotel, warm and cosy.
Everybody in the hotel bar-restaurant was in a festive mood.
Sitting at our table were members of the German Youth Soccer Team.
Suddenly they put down their steins of beer and started to sing "Stille Nacht, heilige Nacht" (Silent Night} and everyone joined in, and we all held hands.....there must have been 6 different languages, people of many Nationalities all united in the magic of Christmas.
Then the German guys sang "Froehliche Weihnachten ueberall" which was very jolly and sounded great.
They taught me some of the words, but I know only enough German to get me through a skiing trip!
This is where we were....Zell am Ziller in the Tyrol:
I think the most important part of the José Carreras Gala
was the incredible amount of money raised for his International Leukemia Foundation....almost 9 million dollars!
FANTASTIC! WELL DONE EVERYBODY WHO TOOK PART!
