SUMMARY:2021 Bel Canto Youth Chorus Winter Concert
DESCRIPTION:The Winter Concert of The Bel Canto Youth Chorus will feature music that tells the Christmas story and conveys messages of Peace and Unity. From Medieval carols to Bach to young contemporary composers\, this program will bring a joyous start to your holiday season! \nFeaturing:\nMegan Jones\, Recorder\nDavid Yerger\, Recorder \nSt. Peter’s Handbell Ringers – Stacey Hageman\, Director \nFriends of Bel Canto\, Percussion \nAmong the  many beautiful and poignant pieces being performed at the Winter Concert is When the Song of the Angels is Stilled.  Our young singers blend the important message of compassion among all people with the spirit of Christmas and the season in this piece.  \nAuthor Howard Thurman (1899 – 1981) was a mentor and spiritual advisor to Dr. Martin Luther King\, and played a leading role in social justice movements in the 20th century. His theology focused on radical non-violence\, an approach that significantly influenced Civil Rights leaders. His poem\, When the Song of the Angels is Stilled\, set to music by Elizabeth Alexander\, admonishes us that once the season of Christmas is over\, that is the time we really need to get to work to do good in the world.  \nWhen the song of the angels is stilled\,\nWhen the star in the sky is gone\,\nWhen the kings and the princes are home\,\nThe work of Christmas begins:\nTo find the lost\,\nTo heal the broken\,\nTo feed the hungry\,\nTo release the prisoner\,\nTo rebuild the nations\,\nTo bring peace among brothers\,\nTo make music in the heart. \nFrom The Mood of Christmas and Other Celebrations by Howard Thurman\n© Friends United Press\, 2001 edition  \nSunday December 5\, 4pm \nSt. John’s Windish Evangelical Lutheran Church\, 617 E. Fourth Street\, Bethlehem 18015 \nTICKETS:\n$11 in advance  | Children under 10: FREE\n$15 at the door \nShare This:
