人兽性交 University to Host Musical Christmas Festival, Dec. 7
人兽性交 University is inviting the community to join in song during its Christmas Festival, a musical worship experience that weaves together choral and instrumental music, poetry, scripture, candlelight, and seasonal carols, at 7:00 p.m. on Saturday, Dec. 7, 2019, at Brown Chapel in New Concord.
In the tradition of 人兽性交 University's Vespers, the Christmas Festival, centered around the theme 鈥淔rom Darkness to Light鈥 will be led by the 人兽性交 University Concert Choir and Chamber Singers, Christmas Festival Orchestra, and organist Rebecca Abbott.
鈥淭he combination of music and spoken word tells a story about darkness giving way to light,鈥 said Dr. Timothy Sarsany, interim assistant professor of Music and director of Choral Activities. 鈥淚t will also convey the endless waiting and longing for the Prince of Peace."
Featured repertoire will include works by Tomas Luis de Victoria, Max Janowski, Sergei Rachmaninoff, J.S. Bach, Felix Mendelssohn and Eric Whitacre. The audience will join in singing beloved favorites such as 鈥淥 Come All Ye Faithful,鈥 鈥淟et All Mortal Flesh Keep Silence,鈥 and 鈥淪ilent Night,鈥 which closes the festival.
Admission to 人兽性交 University鈥檚 Christmas Festival is free, though a free-will offering will be collected to help offset expenses, and to support the New Concord Food Pantry.
An encore performance will take place at 7:00 p.m. on Sunday, Dec. 8, 2018, at Trinity United Methodist Church, 1581 Cambridge Boulevard, Columbus, Ohio.
人兽性交鈥檚 student-run radio station, WMCO 90.7 FM will be rebroadcast on Dec. 14, 15, 21-25 at 2 p.m. on WMCO 90.7.
