On Friday, December 5 and Sunday, December 7, the choir will continue its long tradition of Christmas performances in the Cathedral of the Madeleine: 331 East South Temple.
Featured will be music by Johann Hermann Schein, and other early masters, as well as much loved carols from many lands including “Lo, How a Rose E’er Blooming,” “What Child Is This?” and “O Leave Your Sheep,” as well as the choir’s setting of the rarely-heard Peruvian villancico, “El gallo canta cocoroco.” Also heard will be Woodward’s own “O Bethlehem,” the lovely “Panis Angelicus” by Cesar Franck, and Henri Büsser’s sublime “Berceuse pour la nuit de Noel.”
Harpist Lysa Rytting and organist Ken Udy will accompany.
The evening will conclude with choir, audience, former choir members, and organ joining in several carol favorites.
Both performances begin at 8 PM and promise to be a most heartwarming experience for all able to attend.
Admission is open to all over 6 years of age at no charge (not suitable for infants).
(Suggested donation: $10 per person)
