Pilgrim Festival Chorus Presents A Very British Christmas

Pilgrim Festival Chorus (PFC), the region’s principal community chorus, presents a winter concert, A Very British Christmas, on Saturday, December 5 at 7:30 pm, and Sunday, December 6 at 4 pm at The Church of the Pilgrimage (COTP), 8 Town Square in Plymouth. The chorus is conducted by Music Director William B. Richter and accompanied by Asst. Director Elizabeth Chapman Reilly on the church's 55 rank Roche pipe organ.

A Very British Christmas is divided into three sections: Christmas in the Cathedral, Christmas at Home, and Christmas in the Country. PFC will be sharing some of the best British music, from medieval times to the present, both sacred and secular. Christmas in the Cathedral highlights nine selections used during the annual Lessons and Carols service from King's College, Cambridge. The other sections include some of the best-loved English secular carols as well as John Rutter's nostalgic original composition, The Very Best Time of Year. Of special note are settings by the recently deceased Sir David Willcocks. Willcocks, who was closely identified with music at King's College for most of his life, helped to reinvent the Christmas carol for 20th century audiences. PFC also performs selections by British giants Ralph Vaughan Williams and Gustav Holst.

Since 1999, PFC has delighted South Shore audiences with classical programming. The group of over 70 vocalists of all adult ages is dedicated to authentic choral singing. In addition to the winter concert, PFC generally presents a major choral work each spring, an annual Messiah Sing in December, and summer concerts with pops-style programming.


Tickets are $20.00 for adults, $18.00 for senior citizens and $15.00 for students over 14. Children under the age of 14 are admitted free. Advance tickets may be purchased online at www.pilgrimfestivalchorus.org; and from PFC members. To reserve tickets by phone, please call Gail at (781) 826-8416. Complimentary refreshments will be served in the church hall immediately following the performance.

Plymouth Antiquarian Society Annual Meeting Saturday, November 7th

You're invited to our 96th Annual Meeting on Saturday November 7th starting at 10:30 am. Plymouth women joined together to form the Antiquarian Society in October of 1919, just a few months after Congress passed the 19th Amendment granting women the right to vote, but before it was ratified and made constitutional on August 18, 1920. The achievement of equal suffrage in the United States was directly experienced by our founding members, and helped energize the early Society. Join Society President Ron Lindeman for a lively and far-ranging exploration of women's changing status in history, culminating in this extraordinary victory.

Long Beach Cleanup

The Goldenrod Foundation’s beach cleanup and data collection about trash (Coastsweep) will be from 1 to 3:30 p.m. Sunday, Oct. 25, at Long Beach in Plymouth.

Participants will divide up into teams and pick up trash while recording the amounts and types of trash. The purpose is to gather data for Massachusetts-wide (Coastsweep) and global (International Coastal Cleanup) efforts. The data will help strategize ways to prevent the pollution from going into the ocean in the first place. Prizes will be given. There will be reusable options for some of the disposable items found.

If you are thinking about doing a cleanup on your favorite beach, learn how it’s done. It’s also a good project for homeschoolers, Scouts and church and other faith groups. Go to www.goldenrod.org/blog/events/coastsweephometown-cleanup to sign up and for more information.
