With this annual event just a little more than a month away, Sun Lakes Chorale Holiday Concert options began a little earlier this year. Tickets for the Thursday, December 8 concert were made available at the three Community Day Saturdays during October. Calendars begin filling up quickly and we don’t want our loyal fans to miss anything!
Concert tickets may be obtained from Chorale members and will also be sold from 10:00 a.m.-noon at the Sun Lakes Ace Hardware’s Ticket Tuesdays on November 15, 22, 29 and December 6 if not yet sold out. Readers can also send a stamped, self-addressed envelope to Carolyn Ellis; phone 480-883-6997) who will be accepting telephone orders.
Held at the Sun Lakes United Methodist Church, 9248 E. Riggs Road in Sun Lakes, this annual event has gained a reputation for offering outstanding choral music. The concert will include a variety of holiday songs and cultural styles, traditional as well as contemporary melodies, and a wide range of composers/arrangers.
Audience members annually enjoy this impressively large chorus of male and female voices. Their program includes solos, small group ensembles, and special instrumental attractions, all offered in a beautiful setting where families can share the spirit of the season.
Those contemplating a ticket purchase are invited to explore the Chorale’s website at www.sunlakeschorale.com for information about the group and its leadership. In addition, signs and flyers have been distributed in the community.
The Holiday Concert is definitely one of the few remaining bargains at this time of year (tickets are still just $10 each). And how many opportunities do you have to join others in singing some holiday favorites? Don’s miss this uplifting opportunity!
