In troubling times, there often seems to be just one thing to do. Ignore it.
In keeping with this sage advice, we present this concert of unabashedly happy music. From joyful sacred pieces to exuberant popular standards we offer the most cheerful concert around! Pieces include Mozart's Regina Coeli, Britten's Rejoice in the Lamb, works by Gerald Finzi, as well as depression busting songs of the 30s and 40s. Click here for more details!

The holidays just wouldn't be the same without the music that brings the season to life. This year, the Festival Choir offers stories in song to kick off the holiday season right.
We hear the narratives that shaped our traditions and enriched our lives: Songs of the Nativity and Chanukah as well as 'Twas the Night Before Christmas and more!
Joining us to read some timely tales will be guest storytellers, Jim Fleming and Vicki Nonn. A concert and storytime rolled into one - something the whole family will enjoy!
Please note that this concert will be sung twice on the same day, once in the afternoon and once in the evening. Your ticket will get you into either of these performances.

A choral avian extravaganza! Join us as we wing our way through an evening of birds in song.
We've got them all -- robins, swans, geese, blackbirds, nightingales and more, all waiting to charm you with their sweet music. Pieces include Janequin's rollicking Song of the Birds, Mozart's The Nightingale and George Shearings's Lullaby of Birdland. A must for the bird-watcher in all of us!
