Review: Niagara Star Singers Jingle Bell Christmas Concert

After 4 months of practicing Christmas songs and a grueling weekend consisting of 12 hours of staging over 2 days, the Niagara Star Singers had our Jingle Bell Christmas concert last night in St. Catharines, ON.  There was an audience of almost 200 people out for a fun family night and to help our group do some fund raising for a trip to New York City in May.  We performed more than 20 songs during the 2 hour performance.  The audience was great, the venue fine and we felt amazing after the concert.  Our choir director, Lisa Brillon, once again planned and executed a very entertaining, challenging and professional event.

Here are some photos.

The awesome grand finale from the NSS Jingle Bell Christmas concert.

There she is… the littlest Star Singer.

I’ve decided that having my own backup singers is a good way to go.

They swept me off my feet.

We often play reindeer games… we’ve got rock and roll antlers.

I’m so happy. The happiest elf on stage.

Niagara Star Singers Concert – Dec 7th, 2014

If you can ignore Dad’s shaky hands at the beginning, he is 42 after all, the video is from a darn good performance of Gonna Catch That Santa.  We were part of a Christmas concert put on by the Queenston Ladies Choir.  It took place in Niagara-on-the-Lake at St. Mark’s Anglican Church on Dec 7th, 2014.  Here are some photos that were taken during the rehearsal and the performance.  We had a ton of fun.

 

You didn’t think that I took jazz for nothing, did you? I’m a dancing machine.

It’s true! I’m a Christmas elf. Honourary.

Lisa!!!! Geena is pushing me…

Here is a shot of us paying solemn attention to our choir director, Lisa. She is great and scary, too.

Since you are used to seeing me singing show tunes, I thought that I’d provide a clip where Alexandre and I sing some rock. This is from the TV show Glee and we performed it at the Niagara Star Singers Gala Showcase in May, 2014.
