The Northwest Boychoir proudly presents its 39th annual A Festival of Lessons & Carols concert series featuring eight regional performances in December. These holiday concerts showcase the 90-member combined chorus of the Northwest Boychoir and Vocalpoint! Seattle.

 

The local performance is at St. Alphonsus Church on Thursday, December 21st.

Several local students are members of the Northwest Boychoir: Eric Muesser (16, Nova High School Junior), Henry Bauck pictured in photo 107 (12, Seattle Country Day 7th Grader), Blake Perti (12, Whitman Middle School 6th Grader), Andrew Torgelson in photo 133 back right (18, Garfield High School Senior), Zachary Wilson (10, Seattle Country Day 5th Grader) and Donovan Blackham (15, Ballard High School Sophomore).

Ladies from Vocalpoint! Seattle are joining the Northwest Boychoir for these concerts and one local member is: Ilona Groenink (15, Ballard High School Sophomore)

Patterned after the Christmas Eve observance at King’s College in Cambridge, England, A Festival of Lessons & Carols has become a holiday tradition for thousands of families in the Puget Sound region. This classical performance consists of nine holiday readings, each followed by a traditional carol performed by the choir, and another carol sung by the choir and audience.

A Festival of Lessons & Carols concerts are open to the public, and will run December 9-22, 2017 at various venues throughout the Puget Sound Region. Concerts have reserved seating.

Advance tickets are available through the Northwest Choirs at 206-524-3234 or online at www.nwboychoir.org. These concerts often draw sold-out audiences. Advance ticket purchases are encouraged.
