The King’s College choir, Cantores Christi Regis, will celebrate the holiday season with free public performances in December.
The 28-member group will perform two free concerts of contemporary and traditional Christmas songs, including “And the Glory of the Lord” by Handel “In Silent Night” by Southall, and many traditional holiday carols, such as “Jingle Bells,” “The First Noel,” and “Winter Wonderland.” The concerts will be held at 7:30 p.m. on Friday, Dec. 4, and Saturday, Dec. 5.
In addition, the choir will perform an evening of Lessons and Carols at 7:30 p.m. on Wednesday, Dec. 9. The performance is a service of Scripture lessons and songs that recount the promise of a Messiah and the Incarnation. Each lesson is followed by a carol that reflects the lesson’s message and a brief prayer.
The performances will be held in the J. Carroll McCormick Campus Ministry Center, located at North Franklin and West Jackson streets. The concert is part of the College’s “Experiencing the Arts” series.
