A Cathedral Christmas: "Through a Child's Eyes"

Now an annual tradition, we again present our seasonal holiday concert, A Cathedral Christmas, in Seattle and on the Eastside. The theme this year is "Through a Child's Eyes," and is geared toward our younger listeners. This December, we will welcome the award-winning Seattle Girls Choir for John Rutter's enchanting Mass of the Children. Eric Whitacre's Winter will feature the Northwest sitar virtuoso, Josh Feinberg, in this evocative sound painting of snow, wind and light. A carol sing-along precedes this program of holiday delights.

PLEASE NOTE: This matinee performance is especially designed for younger listeners with shorter attention spans. (See special childrens' ticket offer below.)

The program will consist of selections from the following seasonal works:

Mass of the Children by John Rutter
Winter by Eric Whitacre (first Seattle performance)
Go Tell It On the Mountain
The Very Best Time of Year
We Wish You a Merry Christmas

Plan to arrive one hour before the start of the program, and members of the Seattle Choral Company will be there to provide you and your family with information and exhibits about our program music. Then, one-half hour prior, Maestro Freddie Coleman will lead everyone in a Christmas carol sing-along.

There are four performances of this concert:
Saturday, December 4, 2:00pm at Bastyr University Chapel in Kenmore
Friday, December 10, 8:00pm at Saint Mark's Cathedral
Saturday, December 11, 2:00pm at Saint Mark's Cathedral
