A ROBIN STEALS THE SHOW AT HADDON HALL CAROL CONCERT

  • Jan 7

Visitors to Haddon Hall were treated to an unexpected touch of Christmas magic recently when the South Notts Men’s Chorus were joined by a most unlikely and enthusiastic guest.

As the choir filled the historic hall with seasonal favourites, a bright-breasted robin appeared, hopping and fluttering around the room as if drawn by the music itself. Far from being shy, the little bird sang his heart out, chirping boldly alongside the choir and earning smiles from singers and audience alike.

The highlight came during a beautifully hushed rendition of Stille Nacht, when the robin settled contentedly in a decorated Christmas tree, adding his own lively accompaniment. The moment felt perfectly timed — a natural duet that brought audible delight and gentle laughter from the crowd.

For many in attendance, it was a reminder of the simple, joyful surprises that make the festive season so special.

Against the ancient stone walls of Haddon Hall, with voices raised in song and a robin joining in as if he’d rehearsed all week, Christmas spirit truly took flight.
