SPRING CONCERT AND SERVICE: "SONDHEIM" - 10:00 AM
|
|
Please join us as we celebrate the arrival of spring with fabulous music from one of the greatest composer of musical theater in modern times, Stephen Sondheim. Our choir and invited guests will offer a presentation of Sondheim's music. His unique characterizations offers us an opportunity to look at our own lives and see how we are doing with relationships: the poignant, the sweet, the dull, the unsavory, and everything in between. Come and hear why it is dramatic, relevant, touching and meaningful. Chris Beaurline, Marcella Calabi, Mike Costantino and Jenna McPartland will be our guest singers in addition to the voices in the choir.
Click HERE for the Order of Service. The service will be in person and virtual; attendance guidelines are HERE. Broadcast of the service is available at uuwestport.org/livestream.
Offering can be made on VENMO ("The Unitarian Church in Westport"), on vop.tucw.org, or feel free to mail in cash or check.
