Event
Lee Murdock at the Stained Glass Coffeehouse
A holiday concert commemorating the turn of the century tradition of carrying Christmas trees to Great Lakes port cities during the days of sail on the Great Lakes. At the end of the lumber season every year, Great Lakes Captains would carry one final cargo, heralding the holiday season with a deck piled high with fresh-cut evergreen trees and garlands.
Lee Murdock has written a very popular song about one of the more famous of these ships, The Rouse Simmons.
An annual tradition, this holiday concert is offered as a major concert in the Chicago area every year, on the Saturday of Thanksgiving weekend. The Christmas Ship Concert is also available for touring in November and December, celebrating the maritime aspects of Great Lakes heritage.
