Don\u2019t pack up your Christmas music ears with your decorations quite yet! Valley Harmony will offer its annual \u201cLessons & Carols for Twelfth Night\u201d on Saturday, Jan. 4, 2025, at 2 p.m., at the Newark Valley Congregational Church, also known as the Newark Valley Community Connection, at 32 S. Main St.<\/p>\n

Guest soloist Greg Keeler, tenor, will join Valley Harmony, an all-male a cappella quartet, on several pieces, including the moving \u201cAve Maria\u201d by French composer Franz Biebl and a lyrical arrangement of \u201cWhat Child Is This?\u201d by modern American composer Chris Rupp. Keeler will also sing solos accompanied by Rhonda Moulton on piano, notably the all-time favorite \u201cO Holy Night.\u201d<\/p>\n

Among the highlights that Valley Harmony will perform are the Pentatonix arrangement of \u201cMary Did You Know?\u201d and Rachmaninov\u2019s \u201cBogorod\u0129tse D\u1ebdvo,\u201d and, of course, \u201cCarol of the Bells.\u201d<\/p>\n

Besides Moulton on piano, Laurie Holdridge will return and Anne Austin, both playing various woodwind instruments, will join them. In particular, the three will perform Daniel Kantor\u2019s lilting \u201cNight of Silence.\u201d<\/p>\n

The nine \u201clessons\u201d will consist primarily of relevant poetry, including T. S. Eliot\u2019s \u201cJourney of the Magi\u201d and \u201cThe Work of Christmas\u201d by Howard Thurman.<\/p>\n

Valley Harmony was founded in 2007, and they delight in singing various types of a cappella music. Founder George Lohmann of Berkshire sings bass, while Randy Kerr of Newark Valley sings baritone, and Mike Sheldon of Berkshire and J. Ladd Yost of Nichols both sing tenor.<\/p>\n

Before the Lessons & Carols concert, you can enjoy a delicious brunch provided by Newark Valley Community Connection from noon to 2 p.m. The brunch will include pancakes, bacon, ham, a breakfast egg casserole, muffins, and fruit. The suggested donation for the Brunch and Concert is $10, $6 for senior citizens and students. Reservations for brunch are welcomed but not required. <\/p>\n
