Tis the Season of Song
Sunday, December 13 at 4:00 pm
The Choral Art Society of the South Shore is excited to announce its joint performance with the Cape Cod Chorale of ‘Tis the Season of Song – our first virtual choral concert, celebrating
the beauty of this holiday season.
Sit down by the fire with your favorite holiday hors’ d'oeuvres and aperitif, fill your heart with joyful music, and mingle with our members and others via Zoom!
(*Important!* If you plan to join us, please click here and send us an email by 8pm on
Saturday, December 12 and we will send you the link and instructions.)
The free program consists of four pieces:
-
A rousing arrangement of Jingle Bells by David Willcocks and John Rutter
-
The traditional Hanukkah song Maoz Tsur (Rock of Ages), arranged by Ross Fishman
-
Et in Terra Pax (from Gloria), by Antonio Vivaldi
-
The classic In the Bleak Mid-Winter, by Christina Rossetti and Harold Darke
In addition to the virtual performance, we plan to have some “Name that Holiday Tune” fun!
As have many choruses and musical ensembles, during 2020 we have found innovative ways to come together to create beautiful music. Since September, our choruses have held bi-weekly rehearsals and vocalists have practiced on their own using guide tracks produced by Artistic Director, Danica A. Buckley. Each vocalist recorded themselves singing their part for each piece, and then behind the scenes, the videos were stitched together to form a “virtual choir” accompanied by Ellyses Kuan of the Choral Art Society and Cathy Bonnett of Cape Cod Chorale.
The program is free; donations are gratefully accepted.
