Candlelight Christmas at the Mission
Marking the 193rd anniversary of Mission San Rafael's founding (1817), San Domenico School's singers will light up the Mission Chapel with nearly a hundred candles and pristine renditions of historic carols. Music for the Candlelight Christmas concert will include a hymn and several movements from Masses written by the Spanish Franciscan padres for the Miwok Indians as well as Gregorian Chants, music of the Medieval and Renaissance periods, and traditional carols. The audience will be invited to sing along for several of the carols.
The School's a capella group, San Domenico Singers, will be joined by their Primary School Chorus, Primary School Bell Ringers, and Virtuoso Program String Quintet. This family-friendly event is a perfect start to your holiday season!
