WINTER CAROLS AND LULLABIES
December 16-18, 2022
December 16, 17, and 18, 2022 brought Winter Carols and Lullabies, showcasing the Cleveland Chamber Choir under the direction of Jelani Watkins in a concert with more than two-thirds of the works being from the twentieth or twenty-first centuries. The central features of this concert were the world premiere of newly-composed holiday carols by Ryan Farrell, a performance of two works by Dolores White, and a commissioned Hanukkah piece by Mickey McGroarty – all three Northeast Ohio composers. The concert also interspersed Benjamin Britten’s Ceremony of Carols with carols arranged by 21st century composers.
A portion of donations received was shared with the music program at St. Peter’s Church, Cleveland.
