The Tay Valley Community Choir presents it's annual Christmas concert titled “A Home Grown Christmas'. The choir is renowned for its warm, cozy country concerts where the audience takes an active part by joining in the sing-a-long songs. Several groups of local musicians will add to the Home Grown joyful celebration of music.
The choir, under the direction of Rebecca Worden and accompanist Mary Lou Carrol, has been hard at work preparing seasonal tunes and two different takes on the Hallelujah Chorus. Local musician and former music teacher Jack Hurd has helped the choir prepare a song that he arranged for one of his high school musicals.
The Home Grown theme continues as individual members of the choir show off their talents. Special guests will be local groups; The Suspects, a local band made up of Jack Hurd, Tim Wynne Jones, Kalil Bailey, Cam Gray, and Frank Vanoort, who will perform two songs with the choir as well as a couple of their own songs; and The Ompah Community Choir who will sing a 50s inspired song along with other Christmas songs.
The Home Grown Christmas concert takes place on Friday, December 1 at 7:00 at the Maberly Hall. Admission is $10 at the door, and food bank donations are welcome. Following the concert, all are welcome to mingle with friends, neighbours and performers over refreshments.
