Choral Art Society of the South Shore (CAS), the region’s community choral ensemble, presents “’Tis the Season: Music of Comfort and Joy!”, on Sunday, December 4, 4 pm at House of Prayer Lutheran Church, 916 Main Street, Hingham. The chorus is conducted by Artistic Director Danica A. Buckley, accompanied by CAS accompanist Ellyses Kuan, piano, featuring Julie Reimann, cello and Cheryl Przytula, trumpet.
“This is the musical version of a cozy winter afternoon with a cup of hot chocolate," shares Danica A. Buckley, the chorus’s longtime artistic director and conductor.
“’Tis the Season: Music of Comfort and Joy!” offers a winter-themed choral concert program of energetic and seasonal music, featuring Vivaldi’s “Gloria,” Handel’s “Messiah,” and CAS’s popular singalong of familiar carols and songs.
Make your conducting dreams come true! CAS hosts an online auction welcoming bids to conduct the chorus and audience in its performance of “Hallelujah” from Handel's “Messiah” during the concert. Visit the homepage on choralartsociety.org to bid. This always popular “pop-up” moment in the concert allows audience members to join the chorus on stage to sing along if they wish; scores are available to borrow on site.
Tickets for “’Tis the Season: Music of Comfort and Joy!” are $22 for adults; youth ages 18 and under are admitted for free. Tickets can be purchased from CAS members, at the door, or advance online at choralartsociety.org.
