Cary, N.C – St. Michael’s Roman Catholic Church on High House Road held a concert to celebrate the end of the Christmas season on Saturday, Jan. 9.  Church Music Director Wayne Cusher led the many different music groups that are part of this diverse parish.

The children’s choir sang carols in multiple languages to kick off the concert.  The vocals coming from the front of the church were what angels must sound like.

The parish bell choir played some well-known seasonal carols along with some lesser-known but equally beautiful music.

The Spanish choir sang and played Los Peces en el Rio and Rin Rin while the audience clapped and sang along.

The “parish community” that uses the Green Hope High School for services sang some more contemporary selections like an arrangement of Birthday of a King by David Gurecki and Love has Come with a great beat .

Also featured was the Korean group singing traditional Korean Christmas music.

The Teen Choir performed modern/pop songs.  There were some awe-inspiring solos as well as formal chamber-style instrumentals.

You get the idea.

The music was flawlessly performed and the acoustics in the church are amazing.

This concert was not only a celebration of the “Epiphany”, but truly the celebration of a diverse, but united community of Cary.
