Come sing with Sippican Choral Society as we begin rehearsals for our annual winter concert, "A Festival of Carols." Our first rehearsal is Monday, September 14, 7:00 p.m., at Wickenden Chapel, 86 Spring St., Marion. Doors open at 6:30 p.m., and singers are asked to come early to register and pick up their music envelopes. If you are unsure about being able to sing with the group, come anyway, try out the music for two weeks, then decide. Dues of $40.00 are due by the third rehearsal for all singers.
"A Festival of Carols" will be held at Wickenden Chapel on Sunday, December 6, 2026, at 4:00 p.m. Our featured work will be English composer Benjamin Britten’s "A Ceremony of Carols" with harp accompaniment. Other selections include Canadian composer Sarah Quartel's a cappella work "This Endris Night," Norwegian composer Ola Gjeilo's piece for piano, oboe, and voice, "Lux Beata Trinitas," Sergei Rachmaninoff's "Bogoroditse Devo," an Old Church Slavonic version of the Hail Mary prayer, and Pepper Choplin's multi-lingual anthem "Silent Night for All the World." These works, along with other seasonal offerings, are guaranteed to bring both comfort and joy to singers and listeners alike.
Sippican Choral Society is a non-audition community chorus that welcomes singers of all ages and abilities. See our Membership page for details.
