“A Derry Christmas” Concert

The 2024 Arts Alive Cultural Series presents “A Derry Christmas,” a holiday concert featuring the Sanctuary Choir, Derry Ringers, soloists, harp, percussion, and orchestra.

Under the direction of Dan Dorty, musicians will present a program looking to the Nativity with works such as The Angel Gabriel, Paul Manz’s E’en So Lord Jesus Quickly Come, and Mack Wilberg’s beloved Gloria in Excelsis Deo featuring choir, orchestra, organ, percussion, and liturgical dance. 

The audience will be invited to sing along on selections including O Come, All Ye Faithful, Angels We Have Heard on High, and Mack Wilberg’s setting of Joy to the World. Featured soloists include Charley Miller, Bass; Janice Click Holl, Soprano; Julie Miller, Soprano; and Loren Geeting, Tenor. A handbell quartet will ring What Child is This, an exciting arrangement set by Kevin McChesney. Join us and prepare your heart for the love that has come down at Christmas!
