"A Homespun Holiday!" Please join the Merrimack Concert Association
as we celebrate this joyous holiday season on Saturday, December 14th, 2 P.M.,
at our annual Holiday Concert at Merrimack High School. This popular community event features
performances by the Merrimack Chorus, Concert Band, MCA Pianist Molly Wood, and
our special featured guests; the Thorntons Ferry Elementary School 4th Grade
Chorus.
Under the Choral direction of
Jamie Saucier, audience members of all ages will enjoy being wrapped in the musical
comforts of traditional Holiday favorites such
as "Wassail! Wassail!",
"Still, Still, Still", and "The Little Drummer Boy".
As an added special treat, the MCA Chorus and pianist Molly Lozeau will perform
"Rejoice!" by Gwyneth
Walker, a beautiful new piece to Merrimack Concert Association.
