We had a great first rehearsal last night with our new Music Director, Dr. Robert Train Adams, in our new rehearsal space:

Macondray Hall
First Unitarian Universalist Church
1187 Franklin Street
San Francisco

The program is fabulous:

Francis Poulenc—Quatre Motets Pour le Temps de Noël
Benjamin Britten—This Little Babe
Anonymous (ca. 1420)—Ther Is No Rose of Swych Virtu
John Joubert—There Is No Rose
Michael Praetorius—Est Ist Ein Ros Entsprungen
Boris Ord—Adam Lay Ybounden
John Rutter, arr.—Il Est Né Le Divin Enfant
Robert Pearsall—In Dulci Jubilo
Tomás Luis de Victoria—O Magnum Mysterium
Jan Pieterszoon Sweelinck—Hodie
Harold Darke—In The Bleak Midwinter
John Tavener—The Lamb
John Gardner—Tomorrow Shall Be My Dancing Day
John Rutter—What Sweeter Music
AND the World Premiere of Robert Train Adams’ Christmas Fantasy

We worked on the early music Ther Is No Rose, the Pearsall, Poulenc's Videntis Stellam, the Sweelinck Hodie, and some of Robert's composition, Christmas Fantasy.  We had a lot of fun.  This program is really beautiful

Singers still can join us.  We're looking especially for tenors and basses.  If you are interested, contact Robert Adams at radams@sflc.org, robert@adamsworks.org, or 415-721-4077.
