PROGRAM: Frank Ferko: Festival of Carols; Britten: A Ceremony of Carols(with harp); holiday music and audience sing-along.
Two substantial modern and contemporary cantatas by Benjamin Britten and Frank Ferko with yuletide traditions as their themes energize Schola Cantorum's annual holiday celebration in sound. Drawing on a rich, centuries-old history of seasonal music, Gregory Wait and company have planned a jubilant program with a chance for audiences to sing along with the big, bold Schola Cantorum sound.
