Sweet Jubilation at Mater Dolorosa

South San Francisco, CA, November, 11, 2011: As a fitting finale to cap this year's 50th anniversary celebration of the Mater Dolorosa parish, and to usher in the Christmas season, Hallelujah Chorale and Cherubim, the church's adult and children's choirs, will present their sixth annual holiday concert entitled “In Dulci Jubilo” (Sweet Sounds of Rejoicing) on December 9 and 10, Friday and Saturday, at 7:30 PM at the Mater Dolorosa Church on 307 Willow Avenue, South San Francisco. 
The Hallelujah Chorale is dedicated to the enhancement of liturgy by leading the Mater Dolorosa parish community in praising and worshipping in song. Under the patient tutelage of the exceptionally talented and dedicated music director Angie Pasamba, this group of volunteer musicians and music lovers has evolved into a music ministry known for its rich repertoire of liturgical music for Sunday masses, for delivering unique choral and orchestral arrangements by the director herself, and for their long-awaited annual holiday concerts. This year's concert program includes a collection of musical excerpts and some soulful solos from the Broadway favorites "Don Quixote" and "Les Miserables," as well as traditional carols exalting the birth of Jesus, our true reason for jubilation. Accompaniments will be provided by a professional classical string ensemble.

Tickets are $15 in advance and $20 at the door. Proceeds will benefit the church's stained glass restoration project. For tickets and sponsorships, call (650)-583-4131, (650)-878-1715, or email mdssf50@yahoo.com. Everyone is invited to come, listen and rejoice with us in sweet jubilation upon the founding of our parish and the birth of our Lord!
