Brilliant trumpets, soaring strings, a beautiful flute melody floating over the top–all accompanying dozens of singers lifting their voices in some of the greatest choral music ever written. This is what awaits singers who join the choir of Hancock Church, UCC, in singing A Bach Christmas this holiday season. The choir invites singers of all levels to join them for this event! Repertoire will include selections from Bach’s Christmas Oratorio and various Christmas cantatas, accompanied by chamber orchestra.
“We invite anyone who loves to sing to join us,” says Director of Music, Mark Morgan, “people from any faith tradition (or none), sexual orientation, race etc., all are welcome. There are no auditions, and we welcome all voice parts.”
The performance takes place Sunday, January 8th during morning worship. Rehearsals are Thursday evenings from 7:00 – 8:00pm, starting November 6th. For further information, contact Mark Morgan, Director of Music, at mark@hancockchurch.org.
