The MCE’s first-ever guest conductor, Dr. Deborah Simpkin King (Artistic Director and Founder, Schola Cantorum on Hudson, and Co-Chair of the New York Choral Consortium), was at the podium as the choir continued its Reading and Carols program of the past three years with a choral reflection on a theme of Christmas – Love. The program included inspiring works by Grieg, Gjeilo, Biebl, and Whitacre, interspersed with thoughtful readings and traditional Christmas carols.
