Christmas: “A Ringing, Swinging Christmas”

All performances (except Dec 3) will feature guest flutist Bernard Blary, accompanying many of our songs. Most concerts are $35 for adults and seniors, $10 for children and youth (18 years and below); slightly higher for Dec 3rd and Dec 5th.
We are pleased to introduce two soprano soloists who were awarded our annual student bursaries to encourage them in their musical development. Melanie Hiepler, Dec 9 & 15; Deeandra Miranda, Dec 2, 5, and 16.
As in the past, we also welcome the participation of local school and youth choirs to join us at 4 of our performances, as noted below. They will perform their own 15-20 minute segment, as well as join us for in the program finale.
