Last week, I did something totally out of the ordinary for me — and that is to buy in to an instagram ad (I actually never buy things off of instagram) and get a ticket to a Candlelight Concert. This candlelight concert happens in over 100 cities and depending on the show, it is a fresh spin on a classical music performance — all in the dark with candles. This one in particular spoke to me — 90s hip hop, in my favorite church on the Upper East Side (yes, I love this church — it also has a cafe I used to frequent all the time back in the day).
Church of the Heavenly Rest on 89th and 5th Avenue — so beautiful. And at 9 pm when the concert started, felt even more magical and peaceful.
