Nothing But Treble will celebrate the holiday season in song on Saturday, December 6, at 7 p.m., at the First Congregational Church of Elgin, 256 E. Chicago St., Elgin. The performance will feature a wide range of music composed and/or arranged by American, Canadian, British, and Scottish composers. Pieces range from a 15th-century madrigal to a 21st-century arrangement of the traditional hymn, “Brightest and Best,” performed in an Appalachian folk style. Peter Schickele, writing as PDQ Bach, adds his usual tongue-in-cheek spirit to a song he titled “Throw the Yule Log On, Uncle John”—with the commas before “Uncle John” being strictly optional throughout the piece.We are especially pleased to perform a contemporary piece written by Chicago area composer and performer Reid Spears. Former Elgin Children Chorus singers may remember him as their accompanist!
