Stunning New Cantata Presentation – December 7
WOW! Coming off their Carnegie Hall performance of this cantata on Nov. 17, the First United Methodist Church/Whitewater Area Regional Ministries Choir (and Friends) is thrilled to be presenting “SOLAS” by Heather Sorenson during our 10 am service and again for all at a 1 pm concert. The choir is accompanied by a 19-piece orchestra and James Athas on piano.
SOLAS (Latin for “alone “or “only”) is a musical composition formed around the five pillars of the Christian faith, offering a reflection on the Gospel of Christ. Moving from exploring Scripture alone, Grace alone, Faith alone, to Christ alone, the Cantata culminates in the joyous Glory of God finale, declaring this blessed season of faith. Along with the uplifting sounds of brass, woodwinds, strings and percussion (yes, there are timpani), soloists and narration will enhance the choir performance.
Perhaps one of the most spiritual and uplifting cantatas we have performed, it is generously funded by the Marge and Don Triebold Endowment Fund. Please share this musical experience with your friends and neighbors! You will truly live the “Reason for the Season!”
