Procession marches on in lyrical tradition

The Sacramento State choirs will present the annual concert “A Procession of Carols” to be held on Saturday, Dec. 2 at 8 p.m. and Sunday, Dec. 3 at 2 p.m. and 7 p.m. at Sacred Heart Church on 39th and J Streets.

The program, featuring carols from around the world, candlelit processions, a narrative by English Professor Richard Adams and an audience sing along, is a popular local favorite. Buying tickets in advance is strongly suggested.

"The annual Sac State Procession of Carols concert attracts a dedicated crowd of guests who look forward to this special concert to mark the official beginning of their holiday season," says Sacramento State professor and director of Choral Activities Donald Kendrick. “We bring new music to the event each year, but we also perform certain pieces that have become traditional favorites for our choirs and audience members."

“This year we celebrate our brand new organ at Sacred Heart Church that will make the audience sing-along carols even more thrilling and uplifting."

Tickets for all performances are $10 general, $5 students and seniors. Tickets are available from the Sacramento State Ticket Office at 278-4323 or Tickets.com.
