Kim Adams, director of choral activities at Western Michigan University, calls the annual holiday concert "a beast" to put together, but definitely worth the effort. Presented in a "surround sound" configuration at First Presbyterian Church, five choirs - the University Chorale, Collegiate Singers, Cantus Femina, Gold Company, and the Holiday Grand Chorus - create a continuous program of woven musical strands, modern and ancient. Adams previews the concert with Cara Lieurance, touching on a few of the musical highlights.
'A Choral Christmas,' performed at 4:00 pm and 7:30 pm, is scheduled for Sunday, December 4. More information at the WMU School of Music website.
