Join us for the Tyler Civic Chorale's 6th annual Festival
of Nine Lessons & Carols sung by candlelight in
the beautiful sanctuary of
First Presbyterian Church. Lessons & Carols is a service celebrating the
Christmas story as told through nine different traditional scripture readings
with accompanying carols
sung by the Chorale and assembled congregation.
The
tradition of Nine Lessons & Carols originated at King's College in
Cambridge, England where the
famed service is broadcast live each Christmas Eve
to millions of listeners around the world. Our
festival here in Tyler is based
entirely upon the original service held each year in Cambridge, England.
For
more information about the tradition of Lessons & Carols visit King's College.
Admission is free and open to the public.
Early arrival is encouraged. Doors open at 5:30 p.m.
