On Saturday December 9, 7 pm 'A CHILD IS BORN' is presented by Cantores Celestes Maritimes and the Saint John Men's Chorus under the direction of their artistic director, Kelly Galbraith. They will be joined by the newly formed Cantores Celestes & SJMC Brass Quintet featuring gifted trumpeter, Rob Dutton. Rebecca Burrill and Dr. Kevin Langford are the fabulous collaborative accompanists. Whether you love Medieval and Renaissance music or more contemporary masterpieces like Daniel Pinkham's masterpiece 'Christmas Cantata' and Gwyneth Walker's 'Appalachian Carols' there is something on the programme for everyone. 'Silent Night', 'Ding Dong Merrily on High' and 'O Christmas Tree' arranged for brass and choir by Canadian composers Howard Cable and Scott Harrison will no doubt become new seasonal favourites!
