Reviews of last year's Prelude to Christmas
Experiencing such a beautiful, peaceful atmosphere complemented by stunning choral selections was the perfect way to kick off our advent season. It is rare to find an event during the Christmas season that offers so much for such a reasonable ticket price. Lauren Freking

Absolutely beautiful. I can't think of a more intimate, reverent musical program I would have wanted to be at. The finale of O Come, O Come Emmanuel just stirred the heart. It was breathtaking. Lynette Francis
