The Erevan Choral Society and Orchestra of the Holy Trinity Armenian
Church will present its now-traditional Christmas holiday concert at
7 p.m. Sunday, Dec. 10, at the Holy Trinity Armenia Apolstolic Church,
145 Brattle St., Cambridge.
The program will include a 250th birthday tribute for Wolfgang Amadeus
Mozart, as well as a set of Christmas vocal and instrumental holiday
favorites and a spectrum of songs from the Armenian tradition. Handel's
"Hallelujah Chorus" from the "Messiah" will round out the evening's
program.
The chorus and instrumentalists will perform under the direction of
Father Oshagan Minassian. Michael Loo will serve as concertmaster and
Valerie Becker as accompanist-organist. Two young soloists from the
Boston and New York operatic scene and concert stage will be featured,
Amanda Villegas, soprano, and Eric Fennell, tenor.
Every year this choral and instrumental ensemble performs to a
standing-room-only crowd. This group has entertained Greater Boston
communities and audiences for the past 40 years.
Admission is free. Following the concert, the audience is invited to
join a Yuletide reception in the Charles and Nevart Talanian Cultural
Hall of the church.
