UU Middleboro church musicians are still basking in the warm glo of a superb Autumn Concert (in Memory of Avis Clay), performed on November 19. It was a huge push and a huge success. Kudos to all the performers and support people who came together to make it happen!
December promises to be its usual lively month, starting with two new offerings. Thursday, December 7, at 7:00 p.m., there will be a special gathering called “Finding Peace at the Holidays.” The music will be instrumental, gentle and meditative, a great way to ease into the busiest month of the year. The following evening, December 8, our newly established Song Circle will offer a “Holiday Song Sing” with snacks at 6:00 p.m. and singing at 6:30.
Members of the Chalice Choir and Alumni will present two caroling programs in December. We will be at the Middleboro COA at 10:00 a.m. on Thursday, November 30. On Sunday, December 10, at 2:00 p.m., we’ll be offering a one-hour program of carols and songs at Oakhill HealthCare in Middleboro.
Rather than two services on Sunday, December 24, we will focus on just the evening service starting at 5:30 p.m.. The program will offer an array of music: choir, solo, ensemble, Celtic harp, organ, flute choir, and more. Seating is sometimes tight at this service, so come a bit early to secure your spot.
Looking into January, you will find a Solstice Singers Concert and Soup Extravaganza on Saturday, January 6. For now, mark your calendar and stay tuned for more details later in the month.
Happy Holidays to all – don’t forget to sing!
Susan Hotchkiss, Director of Music
