Parkchester Chorus presents In the Bleak Midwinter

Parkchester Chorus invites you to attend their 77th annual winter holiday concert on December 11, 2016 at 4 p.m. at the First Lutheran Church of Throggs Neck, 3075 Baisley Avenue, Bronx, New York 10461.

Members come from all over the New York neighborhood and include Manhattan and Co-op City. As tradition has established, the winter holiday concert is performed at no charge although a free-will offering is encouraged and gratefully accepted.

This year's program is entitled, "In The Bleak Midwinter." It is a homage to "The Messiah" by George Frideric Handel.

Additional program offerings are penned by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, Gustav Holst, Leonard Bernstein and others.

Also on the program, is "Christmas is Coming" (a Festive Cantata) by Elie Siegmeister and Rufus Wheeler. Narrated by Dave Lazaar, soloists include Joseph Zamplione, Elizabeth Aquino, Christian Aquino, as well as other chorus members. Proudly, all soloists are chorus members.

Parkchester Chorus is celebrating its second winter holiday concert with Director Miles Fellenberg, and welcomes Ava Nazar as their pianist. This is a "not to be missed" opening for your winter holiday season.

Again, seating is on a first come, first served basis.

Music by George Frideric Handel, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, Gustav Holst, Leonard Bernstein and others.
