THE SOUTH BAY Singers will welcome the holiday season with a Holiday Concert titled “Jingle!” on Saturday December 5 at 3:00pm at Gilroy Presbyterian Church, 6000 Miller Avenue in Gilroy The first half of the concert will feature Christmas Carols arranged by Howard Helvey, a musician known for his richly harmonized choral music. The second half of the concert offers fun and popular holiday-oriented tunes that celebrate the joy of the season.
Living up to the concert’s title, the afternoon of music includes special guests Bay Bells. This is a hand bell group that performs throughout Santa Clara County.
For those unfamiliar with hand bells, the group rings highly resonant, tuned brass bells with each musician in the group being responsible for certain notes. It is a uniquely beautiful sound and one that blends wonderfully
with voices.
Tickets for ‘Jingle!”’are $15.00 and available either from choir members or at the door. Children aged 12 and under are free. For more information, visit the group’s website at southbaysingers.com
