Twilight Christmas Concert - SUNDAY 9 December at 4.30 pm
,This year the concert is being held in aid of Drought Relief, and we are hoping to donate as much as possible; so, if you are coming to the concert, please give generously.
Our guest performers will be the Tamborine Mountain Gospel Choir and Jenny Wilson, vocalist. Jenny Wilson is a member of the orchestra whom we normally see playing the flute, however, as a guest vocalist she will be delighting us by singing Gesu Bambino by Pietro A.Yon and, But who may abide this day of his coming.from Handel's Messiah,
Tamborine Mountain's Gospel Choir will be singing Gloria by Vivaldi, also Glory to God by Handel from the Oratorio “Susanna”.
The orchestra’s other guests will be some school children sitting in with the orchestra to play the community carols; a great adventure for them.
By special request the orchestra will be performing some favourites, such a Fairytale of New York; Troika for LT Kije, Fantasia on Christmas Carols, the Sussex Carol, and Carol of the Bells. There will a short, fun, debut piece entitled Wary, composed by the orchestra’s bass player, John Cummings.
For the concert's concluding work the choir will be joined by the orchestra, to perform the Hallelujah chorus from Handel's Messiah.
.
The Tamborine Mountain Orchestra is a community orchestra and consists of around 20 to 25 members with ages ranging from 85 to 16 years of age! We recognise that many people may not have played for years and may be a bit rusty, but this is OK. We find that the old skills come back surprisingly quickly when one is enjoying playing with others. We play a range of works from Broadway to Jazz to Big Band to light classical to Australian traditional.
We meet on Wednesday evenings at St George's Anglican Church, Dapsang Drive, Eagle Heights from 7pm-9pm. If you can read music and can play an instrument and you would like to enquire about joining our happy ‘band’, please ring Terry on 5545 3257 or Russell 5545 1092. You are also welcome to come along to a rehearsal if that would be more convenient.
