This year we will be singing some of our favorites. What Child by Paul Lohman, a new melodic setting of the old favorite Greensleeves seasonal text, along with Come Watch with Us this Christmas Night by K. Lee Scott which causes us to ponder how we of the modern world would have reacted to those ancient events.
The choir will also incorporate a string quartet from the ward to accompany Christmas Night by John Rutter, and some choruses from Part 1 of Handel's Messiah, perhaps including #4 And the Glory of the Lord, #12 For Unto Us and #17 Glory to God.
Selected simple carols from Willcocks' Carols for Christmas will round out the choir's selections. With all of that placed on the choir's plate we will invite the Primary children to sing a couple of songs, and also ask the Young Women to prepare a simple number.
Until then, the choir will be working on their Fall pieces, And the Father Will Dance, How Will They Know?, Joy in the Morning, and Malcolm Archer's Rejoice the Lord is King.
What fun music!!! Come join us.
