Youngest Stairweller, Khalil, tunes up for concert night |
Tonight we sing at Knox Presbyterian -- A cathedral sized gothic style church in downtown Ottawa.
The Stairwell Carollers work hard to perfect their sound |
It's a grand space with gorgeous acoustics and plenty of seating, so if you haven't heard us yet, this is almost your last chance this season.
Knox Dressed for Christmas |
I adore this church, so austere, but somehow warm and welcoming. It wears its Christmas garments like an Edwardian lady would her dinner gown.
Christmas lights from the street are transformed by ancient glass panes |
I was still getting over a bout of laryngitis, so I had a chance to capture some of this buildings architectural glory, while listening for directions that may apply to my own performance.
Pierre instructs the choir |
We are so excited about this season! All the songs in our 2014 Christmas Concert repertoire will be recorded on our next Christmas CD this coming January, 2015. Can you guess the title? O Magnum Mysterium, of course!
As with all our Chrismas CDs, this title piece is an original composition, by our director, Pierre and is premiering this season at our concerts.
See you at a concert!
Holly
