Official Concert Order!!!

Here's what you've all been waiting for, the official order of music for the concerts! Please put your music in this order - our remaining rehearsals will follow this order except for "Carols of the Night" and the viola pieces. A few pieces below are in italics as I'm not sure if they'll definitely be on the program...#5 and #6 aren't quite ready and #10 is waiting final approval.

You are an OUTSTANDING choir!!! Many people have said that we could be charging quite a bit for our concerts b/c of your quality musicianship. What a compliment! I hope this next statement is not understood as 'self-righteous' but it's wonderful to be part of a talented choral group that sings with a spirit of love and unity and whose mission is to testify of the Gospel of Jesus Christ (and that gives free concerts!). Thank you all for your hard work and sacrifice to be part of this choir! Please also express my gratitude to your families for their incredible sacrifice as well!

1. Ding Dong Merrily On High
2. Once in Royal David's City
3. Here We Come A-Caroling
