Choral Festival

Accolades and Thanks to the Saint Thomas Choir and Music Director for the wonderful performance of Nunc Dimittis at the Choral Festival, American Guild of Organists, at First Presbyterian on Sunday. They did it well. The group also participated with the combined choirs from many local churches in Requiem in D minor by Gabriel Fauré. Bob Green sang a very nice solo in the Requiem. A free will offering was given to the families of Sergeant Thomas Baitinger, Officer Jeffrey Yaslowwitz, and Officer David Crawford. All of the musicians performed very well; the Requiem and several other pieces were sung in Latin (complex and challenging). Many thanks to Louise and the choir for the hours of practice and the stunning performance!
