Players Wanted!
All Ages and Abilities Welcome!
If you play an orchestra or band instrument, please join us for this year’s Holiday Orchestra; and if you enjoy singing, please join the chorus! In the past, we’ve been particularly sparse in the string area, so if any violin, viola, or cello players are in hiding, please contact me to sign up to play. Also, if you have any friends who play instruments or sing who might want to come participate in the services, then please bring them along! The music will be fun and simple. Or just show up on Sunday to listen or sing along.
