The Vancouver Cantata Singers performed its 9th annual Christmas Reprise at the Holy Rosary Cathedral on Saturday afternoon, December 17th, 2011. The first photos record just a bit of our dress rehearsal the previous evening in the Cathedral. The reverberant sound is very satisfying for choral music.
The next afternoon, Jesse Read once again took photographs of the concert from the organ loft at the back of the cathedral. You can almost spot him in the balcony, leaning over the camera on the tripod.

| Watching music--watching conductor |
