LIKE SEASON’D TIMBER
Wednesday, December 23 @ 7 pm

Only a sweet and virtuous soul,
Like season'd timber, never gives;
But though the whole world turn to coal,
Then chiefly lives.
— George Herbert

We begin our season in the time of the pandemic with a meditation on durability and resilience; a reminder that renewal happens.

To ensure the safety of our singers, their families, and our community at large this performance will not be open to an in-person audience. Instead, the concert will be presented online as our artists perform within recommended guidelines for singing.

Komm, Jesu, komm Bwv 229 by J.S. Bach
