WHAT:

ChildrenSong of New Jersey, under the direction of Polly Murray, is scheduled to perform a seasonal concert Holiday Treasures at the First United Methodist Church of Haddon Heights in Haddon Heights, NJ.

Tickets are $15 per adult ($12 in advance through the ChildrenSong online store) and $10 for seniors and students. Children 11 and under are free. Tickets will be available at the door.

Holiday Treasures is filled with the best of Christmas, holiday, and celebratory music for the season. Highlights include selections from Come Ye Sons of Art written for the birthday of Queen Mary in 1694 accompanied by string ensemble and a newly composed selection Share the Joy. This new song was written for “The Gift of Sharing” at Lord & Taylor, a collaboration of 45 choruses in nine states who sang simultaneously on November 15, 2010. Other holiday selections include S’vivon, The Holly and the Ivy, The First Noel, Auld Lang Syne, and a joyful Caribbean arrangement of De Virgin Mary Had a Baby Boy. A breathtaking arrangement of Bob Chilcott’s Mid-Winter will leave you in awe of the choir’s ability to capture the true spirit of the season. The concert ends with a traditional ChildrenSong holiday sing-along.

The choir recently performed in Canada at the Niagara International Music Festival and for Lord & Taylor's “Gift of Sharing” concert, and will perform at Longwood Gardens on December 10th.  

Founded in 2000, the Choir provides vocal music education for children ages 8-16 in Camden, Burlington, and Gloucester counties in New Jersey regardless of their ethnic, religious, or economic backgrounds. For an audition or concert information, please contact the Choir by calling 856-216-1140.
