Enjoy the sounds of the season at a community Christmas concert at 5 p.m. on Sunday, December 3, at First Baptist Church Cornelia.
“Song of the Angels” is the theme of this year’s concert, according to First Baptist Minister of Worship & Music Randy LeBlanc.
“As I gathered the music for this year, I noticed how often ‘angels’ appeared throughout the songs, thus the concert title Song of the Angels,” says LeBlanc. “I am excited to feature the orchestra in a delightful original composition, ‘Angels Dance’ by Steve Amundson, recently retired orchestra director of St. Olaf’s College.”
This will be LeBlanc’s sixth Christmas concert with the choir and orchestra.
As with past concerts, he says this year there will be plenty of Christmas Carol favorites, including an audience carol sing-along accompanied by the professional chamber orchestra assembled by Heather Strachan, Artist in Residence at Piedmont University.
The event is free, but donations to the First Baptist Church’s Music Ministry are welcome. The church is located at 325 Oak Street in Cornelia.
