"Hark the Herald"
Music, the greatest good
that mortals know, and all of heaven we have below.
Joseph Addison |
Everybody loves live music, especially
at Christmas. Music can relieve stress, soothe tired minds
and set off sparks in the imagination. The Federation’s choir
will be celebrating the season by singing festive songs on
Saturday afternoon at the Hong Kong Cultural Centre and again
on 31 December to bring in the New Year. It is a truly wonderful
communal experience to sing together, to raise your voice
for the pure joy of being alive. During Christmas we can
give thanks for all the blessings we enjoy and offer gifts
to those we love and to young people who are less well off
than
ourselves.
To make a donation for these youngsters, contact
Bonnie, Partnership Office, tel 2123 9598. Visit www.hkfyg.org.hk to
see the various ways of giving.
Contact Patrick Chiu,
HKFYG Music Director, tel 2564 1277, if you would like
to partner us in a musical event, offer a venue or
even perform with us. See Upcoming Events for details
of the holiday concerts. Read on for feedback from
the performers. |
