Looking Forward to Next Year

The Evanston Civic Chorus completed the fall session a couple of weeks ago with a Christmas party gig.  On Monday, December 13, 2010 we provided some entertainment for the Senior Circle party at the Legal Tender restaurant.  We figured we'd be limited to just the a cappella tunes from our Christmas program.  But with a little bit of detective work, Kirk discovered an old piano buried in a corner behind a pile of chairs.  It was just the perfect instrument for the Beach Boys' "Little Saint Nick."

This was the lineup:

  • God Rest Ye Merry, Gentlemen
  • Bradshaw's Carol, Round, and Alleluia
  • Born on a New Day
  • Little Saint Nick
  • Hark the Herald Angels Sing
  • Joy to the World
The audience was very appreciative, and I believe our tribute to the Beach Boys might have been the favorite. 

After a successful year, which included several concerts and participation in many community events, the Chorus looks forward to the new year.  The spring session will start on Wednesday, January 26, 2011 at 7:00 p.m. in the EHS choir room.

How about a New Year's resolution that's easy to keep - singing with the Evanston Civic Chorus!
