Voices of Tabernacle spread holiday cheer

SHERBURNE – Classic Christmas carols can easily put everyone in the holiday mood, and this weekend the Voices of Tabernacle will be performing their annual winter concert, which will feature a number of Christmas Classics from composers around the world.

The Voices of Tabernacle, directed by Anita Humer, will present “Choral Classics” at 3 p.m. on Saturday at the Episcopal Church of Epiphany on Classic Street in Sherburne.

Saturday’s concert will include 25 selections, including “The Christmas Song,” “We Three Kings,” “Jolly Old St. Nicholas,” “Silent Night,” “Away in a Manger” and many others. Pauline Nower, a former member of the chorus will return as a guest soloist. Nower will perform a solo during “The Christmas Song.” A second soloist, Meena Conant, will perform a soprano solo during “Wither’s Rocking Hymn.”

Along with the chorus, there will be performances by some of Humer’s piano students. In addition, several instrumentalists will join the performance; including Rosemary Jaytanie on the Piano, Cathy Bishop-Thielke and Matthew Aubeuf on percussion and Stephen Sabin on the cello. “Our two mallet percussionists add a great deal of color to the pieces,” Humer said. A member of the Syracuse Symphony, Darryl Pugh, will also perform with the group on the string bass.
