A Wreath of Carols
Sunday, December 17th at 3:00 PM
Central United Methodist Church
1011 Second Street, Muskegon, MI
The Wreath of Carols in December has become a fixture and a favorite in our programming. We go through as many as twenty-four to twenty-six Advent/Christmas/Epiphany pieces during the course of the concert. Usually it runs from Medieval to Twenty-first Century music. Soloist and audience participation are frequent features of the Wreath of Carols.
