Event Description
Christmas time is carol time. The Christmas spirit can be expressed in so many ways: gently, robustly, ceremonially, intimately, poetically, grandly, angelically, rustically, liturgically or by the simplest song or phrase. Kevin Zakresky leads the VCC in a banquet of seasonal music, with a cameo appearance from Fiona Blackburn and the British Columbia Girls Choir.
