LOCAL CHURCH PRESENTS SEASONAL CLASSIC: An unusual mus-ical
event for a local parish to present will be offered by the Junior
Choir of Christ Church, Lynbrook at 4 PM on January 2nd. The
Church, located at Peninsula Boulevard and Hempstead Avenue will
give the people oi? Long island an opportunity to hear Benjam'n
Britten's work "A Ceremony of Carols" sung by the dedicated
young voices of the Choir directed by Miss Judity Somogi. The
accompanying harpis: will be the gifted Miss Clauda Hill of the
Metropolitan Opera Orchestra.
while performed frequently in larger metropolitan centers, the
"Ceremony oi' Carols" is now being presented by a local Long
Island Church for the first tim3. Britten's adaption of medieval
carols is the type of music som : have said does not constitute
traditional music for the Church. It is precisely for this reason
that Christ Church is inviting ihe general public to share this op-portunity
to hear and enjoy an unusual and importaiit contribution
to the music of Christmas.
