Calgary Men's Chorus presents Season of Light
Season of Light
Season of Light is the Calgary Men's Choruses celebration of the holiday season together with EnChor Chamber Choir and the Savridi Singers.
December is a transitional time of year dominated by short days and long, dark, cold nights. Yet, as we come to the end of the month, the days slowly start to get longer as the winter solstice heralds the gradual return of the sun and the anticipation of the coming spring. It is no coincidence that Christmas, Hanukkah, Saturnalia, and many other light themed festivals take place at this time of year. This "season of light" is in anticipation of the suns return which will eventually bring longer and warmer days, and the approach of springafter suffering through the terrible predictions of a rodent who delights in dashing our hopes for an early spring.
In keeping with ancient and more recent traditions, we will mark this season of light by singing a few Jewish selections, some Christmas carols and other seasonal selections to celebrate our orbital joy.
Over the past few years we have been lucky to call Temple B'Nai Tikvah our home, and we are looking forward to offering up a special thank you to the people of this Jewish community for welcoming us into their space.
