January 19th - Day 276

This guy woke up during the applause at the culmination of soprano Eleanor Briggs's recital in St Martin-in-the-Fields (accompanied by pianist Suzy Ruffles). Last year Eleanor sang in front of 10,000 people in Trafalgar Square as the winner of the inaugral Royal Opera House/BP Singing Competition. Today, the high pitch that she reached at the end of her last song, by Mozart, was wonderfully startling. It was probably that, in fact, that woke up the man.
