Concert week is here...

... for the Village Singers of Lake Zurich. Ellen and I arrived early for the final Monday night rehearsal to assist Chuck the Elder with supplementary spotlight setup...



... before the singing began. All 12 songs were done by memory for the first time, letting us all know where we needed more personal work to "fine tune" words and note memorization for Friday's dress rehearsal.



Tara, our accompanist extraordinaire, mugs for the camera between selections. Without her talent and dedication, we would not be the stellar group we are!



The concerts will be held on Saturday, December 6th, 2008 at 7:00 pm and Sunday, December 7th, at 3 pm and will feature these selections by the chorus:

"A Baby Is the King"
"Alle, Allelu"
"Angels In Seven"
"Children, Go Tell It"
"Christmas Time Is Here"
Handel's "Hallelujah Chorus"
"Jazz Jingle"
"Santa's On His Way Medley"
"Sleigh Ride"
"Swingin' At Santa's Place"
"There Is A Season"
"We Need A Little Christmas"

.. as well as a lineup of solos, duets, and small group numbers. Of course, a few surprises will also be included along with the traditional free raffle with door prizes that include gift cards totalling $300.00 from local restaurants! And it all is available for the low price of $8 ($5 for seniors.) So plan on attending! The location of the concert is Lakeview Community Church in Lake Zurich and more info is available here.
