Christmas Part III: Corpus Christi Cathedral Concert Series



 Every year the choirs at Corpus Christi Cathedral put on a Christmas pageant. This is a huge production - all the choirs (adult, childrens, cherub and Schola) are combined for over 100 voices (all volunteers) with full orchestra accompaniment. Then, over 100 pageant participants (all volunteers) including ballet dancers, angels, shepherds, doves, Kings and of course the Virgin Mary, Joseph and baby Jesus. This year, we had three - yes THREE performances. Each one was a total sellout. Our cathedral holds over 1200 people...and they were standing in the aisles. It was amazing. Some new sets this year done by a designer in New York added more beauty to the production. Here is a review of the pageant that appeared in the Corpus Christi paper. Did I say it was amazing? I felt so totally blessed to be part of this wonderful story and give this gift to our community....Blessed Beyond Measure (and a little tired from singing so much :)
