The San Francisco Gay Men’s Chorus returns to Santa Cruz on December 17 to present an effusive holiday concert hosted by First Congregational Church.

 

“Think big, think stunning, think sensational,” says Artistic Director, Dr. Tim Seelig, who makes his Santa Cruz debut this year: “We’re going to deliver a truly breathtaking holiday extravaganza packed with familiar favorites, sparkles and good cheer.” Seelig has a corker of a concert in store on December 17, featuring a chorus that has blossomed and doubled in size since his arrival. Seelig continues: “Imagine: a hundred singers, gorgeous melodies, songs that will warm your heart and some wickedly funny tongue-in-cheek humor from our ensemble, Vocal Minority.”

While the program contains moments blissful, inspiring, and humorous, the message is a profoundly spiritual one, explains senior minister at First Congregational, Dave Grishaw-Jones: “Since 2002, the Chorus has helped raise over $57,000 in Santa Cruz County. We hope to raise another $10,000 this year to bring renewed hope to those who seek a spiritual home where deep respect and mutual understanding guide our life and choices.”

 

One of the ways to participate is by bidding in the Conduct-The-Chorus auction. As well as helping the Santa Cruz AIDS Project save lives, the winner can have as much fun as this maestro: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zo5QK_Rhpl0

 

“For more than a decade, the Chorus as brought untold joy to the thousands who have flocked to Santa Cruz premiere of the Chorus’ Holiday concert,” says Chorus executive director, Teddy Witherington, adding: “Come celebrate the season with us as part of a caring family.”
