Centreville, MD - The leaves are turning, and the temps are dropping. Thanksgiving is around the corner and then that special time of year is here! As we head towards the 2021 Holiday Season, Queen Anne’s Chorale is pleased to announce two concerts: Saturday, December 4th (7:00pm) and Sunday, December 5th (3:00pm) at the Centreville United Methodist Church located at 608 Church Hill Road (Rt 213). The theme is “A Family Christmas” with selections that will delight the children in all of us. In addition to seasonal favorites that families will enjoy, there will be the traditional audience sing-along, and a light reception afterward.
Chorale singers have been working hard and are excited to offer a live concert to our community. The large sanctuary at the church will enable audience members plenty of space for social distancing.
A running theme in “A Family Christmas” is the song “Jingle Bells”. Almost every piece is either based on or quotes “Jingle Bells”. Attendees will be invited to respond each time it is heard. One particular number cleverly combines “Jingle Bells” with familiar themes from Tchaikovsky’s ballet The Nutcracker. Children will especially love “You’re a Mean One, Mr. Grinch” and “Christmas Time is Here” from the respective seasonal animated features. “A Family Christmas” is sure to put you and yours in the holiday spirit!
Tickets are $20.00 each and may be purchased in advance or at the door, with children through high school age admitted free.
Queen Anne’s Chorale is supported in part through grants from the United Way of Queen Anne’s County, the Queen Anne’s County Centre for the Arts, and the Maryland State Arts Council, an agency dedicated to cultivating a vibrant cultural community where the arts thrive.
The Board would also like to thank our numerous supporters. Also, they would like to thank our Corporate Sponsors who continue to support the Chorale’s mission. Corporate sponsors are: Service Today, Acts Retirement-Life/Heron Point, Koons Toyota Easton, Chesapeake Hearing Centers, Soistman Family Dentistry, Liberty Technical Services and Shore Bancshares.
