The free Christmas Concert and Luncheon will be offered at John Calvin Presbyterian Church under the direction of William R. Memmott.  On Sunday morning, December 14 at 10:30 a.m.the church will resound with soloists, chorus, strings (from the Louisiana Philharmonic Orchestra), harp and organ in a full performance of Camille Saint-Saens' "Christmas Oratorio."

 

Saint-Saens' melodies (he was 23 when he wrote this piece) are beautiful, and the instrumental accompaniments are lush with Romantic expressiveness, especially the harp for the trio "My soul doth magnify."

 

Our soloists, Sandy Cranfill, Sharon Fortin, Kelly Kron and Danny Cain, will be joined by guests David Bloom (tenor) and Aaron Ambeau (bass).  Jan Cox will be at the organ.

 

 

Be sure to invite your friends and family to this special day of celebration.
