[rodgersorgan] Re: What are you doing for Christmas?


Christmas is always interesting at my church.  By mid-November we start 
constructing a very elaborate set including ice for the skating scene.  We do 
a mixture of popular and sacred-contemporary music for Act I.  Act II is a 
complete Biblical story from the birth, life, death and resurrection of 
Jesus.  The musical backdrop includes musical underscores with both 
contemporary and traditional selections.  The end is a dramatic ascension 
scene, complete with flying angels.
We do a total of (8) performances for over 16,000 people.  We definitely 
reach our community.  The cast includes almost 200 singers and 50 in the 
orchestra.  We use piano and organ with MIDI supplementation.

This year we are using several musical selections from a book called "Agnus 
Dei"--it includes some wonderful new music.
