The Choir of the West, University Chorale and members of the University Symphony Orchestra hit the road two weeks ago for PLU’s annual Christmas concert tour.
The musicians performed “Rejoice: A Christmas celebration concert from the campus of PLU” at St. Mary’s Cathedral in Portland, Ore., on Nov. 30; at First Presbyterian Church in Seattle on Dec. 1; and on campus Dec. 2.
The annual concerts feature anthems, processionals, carols, narration and audience participation. This year marked the premiere “Sinfonia and Processional: Rejoice!,” which was named for the concerts’ theme and written by PLU composer Greg Youtz.
This photo gallery contains the behind-the scenes images of the tour, documenting the ensembles’ long bus trips and rehearsals. The images were captured by student photographer Daniel Ahrendt.
