Cal Holiday Concert To Be Rebroadcast

Every December, the start of the holiday season can be marked by the Department of Music’s annual concert, “Let Heaven and Nature Sing: A Holiday Tradition,” usually held in a standing-room-only performance in the Sykes Chapel and Center for Faith and Values.

“This year would have marked the 10th anniversary of this concert in the Sykes Chapel and Center for Faith and Values,” said Ryan Hebert, associate professor of music and director of choral studies.

Every December, the start of the holiday season can be marked by the Department of Music’s annual concert, “Let Heaven and Nature Sing: A Holiday Tradition,” usually held in a standing-room-only performance in the Sykes Chapel and Center for Faith and Values.
The performance highlights the work of the Chamber Singers and Camerata, under the direction of Hebert. However, the film production was a collaboration of many from the College of Arts and Letters, from the vocal work of the student performers to the creative direction of the production crew and the technical abilities of the post-production team. Students and faculty — almost 20 of them, not counting the performers — worked side-by-side to produce the show.
The concert also included a brass ensemble composed of James Kluesner and Joshua Lurie, trumpets; Brandon McDannald, horn; and Stan Wilkerson, trombone. Pianists Grigorios Zamparas and Corey Merenda and organist Dwight Thomas also performed.
