Several Cardinals and the ex-Secretary of State were also in attendance.

Sistine Chapel Choir
Last night we went to hear the Pontifical Choir of the Sistine Chapel give a concert in the Church of San Giovanni de' Fiorentini. The repetoire was studded with pieces by Palestrina, Perosi, and da Viadana to name a few. We were invited by our friend Vincenzo who is a member of the Choir. Here's a picture of Vincenzo talking with two gentlemen before the program began.
