Posted: Thu Dec 12, 2013 8:20 am
For any forum members on island, note that the two Christmas Concerts of the St. John Singers will take place this weekend. Gerald over at St. John Life reports the schedule and details, excerpted below. These are really wonderful performances!
St. John Singers
The St. John Singers will be performing in Cruz Bay at the Cruz Bay Nazareth Lutheran Church tomorrow, Friday at 7:30 p.m. and in Coral Bay at the Emmaus Moravian Church on Sunday December 15, also at 7:30 p.m.
This season’s concerts will include settings of traditional carols, classical and contemporary pieces, and calypso. Music representative of a range of time periods and countries of origin will be performed and the audience, as always, is invited to join the choir in a traditional carol sing-along. The choral music will be enhanced by accompaniments on piano, brass, and a variety of percussion instruments. Featured guest artists are Michael Partain and Wendy Ramos, who will perform instrumental works for brass in addition to accompanying several of the choral pieces. Luba Dolgopolsky is the guest pianist for these concerts.
The St. John Singers are dedicating this year’s Christmas performances to the memory of long-time member Joyce Ballard.
