No, it isn’t time to decorate the tree yet, but it is time for choirs to begin rehearsals for holiday concerts. The First Presbyterian Church Concert Choir at the First Presbyterian Church of Monrovia invites singers to begin preparations for its December concert with rehearsals starting Thursday, Oct. 15 from 7:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m.in the church’s choir room, continuing weekly up to the performance date, Sunday, Dec. 6. Dr. Peter Green, Director of Music, will lead the choir in portions of Handel’s “Messiah” and other Christmas works. Last year’s concert drew a full house and it is anticipated this year’s program will do the same. Child-care can be arranged.
The First Presbyterian Church is at 101 E. Foothill Blvd., Monrovia. Information: (626) 358-3297, ext. 205.
