RJC Christmas at Knox (pictures and video)

It was a cold Sunday Dec 12 in Saskatoon. But inside Knox United Church, an appreciative audience warmed up to Chorale and Women's Choir at their annual Christmas Concert inside the beautiful and historic downtown Saskatoon church.  The concert rounded out with some student soloists and small groups.

The combined choirs of Chorale and Women's Choir in Knox United Church, Saskatoon.

The concert began with the opening chorale from J.S. Bach's Cantate #142 "Alleluia, gelobet sei Gott"


"Padre Nuestro" (The Lord's Prayer) by Paraguayan composer
Roberto Casino
The Women's Choir sang a few numbers as well.
Small groups and soloists had also prepared a few pieces.  Here a boy's quintet sing "O Holy, Silent Night."
A great crowd braved to cold to hear the choirs perform in the beautiful downtown Saskatoon church.

It was a beautiful end to a busy day which began with  both choirs singing at the morning worship service in Waldheim. An afternoon rehearsal in Knox was followed by supper out (for the whole group of singers, 45 of them!) Thanks to the Noodle King and Ice Cream Queen for accomodating such a large group.
