How to Write Your Own Choir Christmas Program
A few weeks ago, I received an email from a music director asking for ideas and suggestions for a Christmas program for her small adult church choir.
I had already planned to write this post sometime later this month, so I thought I'd share my thoughts and ideas now, in case some of you have the same questions.
Also, I'm using this post to kick-off a mini "Christmas in August" series, so grab a cup of hot chocolate (or iced mocha) and enjoy!
