Long, Long Ago
Celebrate the Christmas Season with the Monday Morning Singers!
We are thrilled to present Sarah Quartel’s composition, commissioned by the Monday Morning Singers in honour of our 24th anniversary year. This is the first time the choir has commissioned a piece and we are very excited! Sarah Quartel’s work, Long, Long Ago, tells the familiar Christmas story in a new and delightful way.
Our Christmas concert is dedicated to renowned actor, Kenneth Welsh. We honour his generosity to the choir, to the community of Uxbridge, and to acknowledge his influence in the arts. Ken was a mentor to Uxbridge’s Maggie Anderson. Maggie will read excerpts from A Child’s Christmas in Wales, and join the choir as the soloist in Vincent Lübeck’s (1654-1740) Christmas Cantata, Willkommen Süßer Bräutigam.
We also welcome Early Music performers, Alison Melville and Tatsuki Shimoda from the Toronto Early Music Consort and Tafelmusik.
Our performance takes place on Friday, November 29th, at 7:30 pm at St. Paul’s Anglican Church, in Uxbridge, Ontario.
Tickets are $25, cash at the door.
