As part of her annual Christmas show, the Queen chose a top-charted NHS choir to sing while she thought about the pandemic.
Lewisham and the Greenwich NHS Choir performed the Christmas carol « Joy To The World » from Windsor Castle at the end of the Queen’s annual address – a heartfelt message of hope to the country.
Andre Levy, who sings bass parts with the choir, said: “Only now do I digest the experience, it was too much to record that day.
« It is as if a child was suddenly given everything beautiful in the world without being able to see through and appreciate it. « . It was an amazing experience. ”
The choir was kept in the dark about its grand assignment to appear on the Christmas show and only asked to learn the Christmas carol and meet in their regular rehearsal room at University Hospital Lewisham in south east London would be revealed.

After completing the real purpose of the song, the choir members traveled to Windsor and took the Christmas carol in St. George’s Hall of the castle.
“We were absolutely clueless, everything was kept out of sight. Some of us speculated among ourselves that it might be a high profile celebrity, we even thought it might be royalty, ”Levy said.
Mr Levy, who works as a medical records clerk at Lewisham and Greenwich NHS Trust, joined the choir shortly after scoring a number one single in 2015.
He added: “Everyone was shocked, there was a bit of silence, but overall there was a feeling of euphoria.
“Everyone was very excited, including me, and felt very privileged to be part of something like this. ”
Mr. Levy said the event was a positive way to end a difficult year: “This is like the light at the end of the tunnel.
« With everything people have been through – it was one of the toughest years in history – it’s wonderful to end on a climax. ”
