This winter Down East Singers will once again be performing two holiday concerts:

Friday, December 10th, 7:30 p.m.,  Second Congregational Church, Warren 
Sunday, December 12, at 2:30 p.m., at the Camden Opera House.

The concert program will include compositions by San Francisco composer Kirke Mechem:

Seven Joys of Christmas
Christmas Past and Christmas Present
Birthdays in Round Numbers

Ave Maria by Franz Biebl.

Also hat Gott die Welt geliebt (For God so loved the world) by Heinrich Schütz.

The December concerts will be dedicated to the memory of former DES singer Tom Bertocci, who died earlier this year.  Our program will include a contemporary piece entitled “Thou shalt know him when he comes”, performed at Tom's request.

We look forward to seeing you at one of our Winter Concert performances!
