December is the month of anticipation and great collaborative music-making! Singing songs, caroling in groups, listening to others, and enjoying good cheer – our lives are marked with an abundance of hope and joy. It has been three years since we’ve been able to gather comfortably and relatively safely during the holiday season.
Early in the month, a caroling choir will visit the Adult Supportive Day Program at the Middleboro COA and sing while folks decorate the huge tree in the function room. Another caroling choir will lead a singing program at Heritage at Falmouth where our minister emerita Tricia Tummino now lives. There are rumblings that we will take to the streets later in the month, visiting Oak Hill Nursing Home and Serenity Rest Home, and who knows what else? ‘Tis the season.
Christmas Eve this year will be live and full of music. In addition to Shelley Otis and her Celtic harp, there will be a rich variety of choral anthems, ensembles, and solos.
Heads up for January: Mark your calendars NOW for the Solstice Singers show on January 7 at 4:00. There will be “take home” soups available for after the show. We’ll keep you up to date as the details become available.
