It is official! Our Easter cantata season has begun!

Our first Easter choir rehearsal will be this Tuesday, February 6th at 7:00 PM at Sheridan United Methodist Church.
We are presenting: 'The Sacrifice' by Steve Moore and David T. Clydesdale. We have presented two of their cantatas in the past, and all have been blessed. Go to http://www.wordmusic.com/ click on 'The Sacrifice' click on one of the tunes or click on "watch video" to preview the piece.
This piece includes an accompaniment DVD which has the orchestra accompaniment along with interviews of the Biblical characters of the Easter story. There are many points in the cantata where the lyrics of the music appear so the audience can sing along.
Our preliminary plans are to present this piece in Cattaraugus at the Cattaraugus United Methodist Church on Sunday, March 25 in the evening, and on Palm Sunday, April 1 at 7:00 PM at the Sheridan United Methodist Church.
We have 9 weeks left. I will ask you to make as many rehearsals as possible. PracticeTrax will be available.
I am looking forward to working with you again. WE NEED YOU!
