CUESTA COLLEGE CHAMBER
SINGERS, Vocé AND CONCERT CHOIR PERFORM A HOLIDAY CONCERT AT THE OLD
MISSION SATURDAY, DECEMBER 10
It’s time to relax and actually enjoy the holidays – the Cuesta College
Chamber Singers, Vocé and Concert Choir present a Holiday Concert at 8
p.m., Saturday, December 10 at the Old Mission San Luis Obispo.
At the Holiday
Concert, the Cuesta Chamber Singers,
Vocé
and Concert Choir will be working hand-in-hand with Toys for Tots to
collect toys for local children. They hope to make the holiday season a
little brighter for the children of San Luis Obispo County.
The performance will feature everything from a Medieval processional to
gospel choir and jazz. Plenty of old holiday chestnuts like “Jingle
Bells,” “Silent Night,” and “Hark! The Herald Angels Sing,” as well as
multi-cultural, solstice and Hannukah pieces also will be featured.
The Chamber
Singers will close their set with a Gospel version of Handel’s
“Hallelujah Chorus.” Then the entire cast will come on stage for a
holiday carol sing-a-long. The grand finale will be “Heartlight,” by
Neil Diamond, the theme song for the Toys for Tots donation campaign:
“Put On Your Heartlight.”
The Cuesta Chamber Singers just returned from Europe this past August.
They raised $50,000 in the community, and gave nine performances in
Prague, Vienna, Salzburg, Geneva, Montreux, and Munich.
Donation boxes
for toys will be on hand at the concert. Please bring a toy to donate
for Toys for Tots.
