Tonight, our family is singing in Alpine's annual "Joyful Christmas Sounds" a community concert that has been a tradition for over 25 years. Conducted by Marvin Payne, this is the fifth year that someone from our family has participated (Sue-5 years, Scott-3 years, Mark-3 years, Brian 3 years). It's always been a treat to learn from Marvin and sing with all the incredible talent that is here. This is the first year that all of us have participated in the adult choir (sometimes they have a children's choir and Mark and Brian did that one year). Brian is also playing viola in a string quartet that is accompanying the choir on "For Unto us a Child is Born". In addition to the choir numbers, other local talent performs solo or small group numbers.
