The last two choir numbers we have performed have been amazing! Hats off to all of you for your hard work. Everyone I talked to on Sunday was so impressed with the children and so was I. The children's chorus adds a unique beauty to our choir and I am always amazed at how dedicated and musical they are.
Exciting times ahead! I have raided the stake choir closet and found some gorgeous pieces. The first is a Mack Wilberg arrangement of Lead Kindly Light. We will sing that in early October. I also found several selections that could be sung as solos, duets, trios, or quartets in December for Christmas. If you are interested in singing with a small group, please let me know. My goal is to fill December with Christmas music. Every week, I would like to have a musical number.
For our Christmas program, I have selected a Christmas Cantata. Just reading through it, I could feel how powerful it will be and I hope you feel the same way. If you want to get a flavor for it, here is a link to the sheet music. Below are some audio files you can listen to and become familiar with these beautiful songs!
I was asked about when exactly our Christmas program will be. Christmas Day is on Sunday this year, so I don't know if that is when we will have it, or another day. As soon as I find out, I will pass on the info to you. Happy listening!
