SUMMARY:Red Cedar Chamber Music - Cactus Quintet
DESCRIPTION:Red Cedar Chamber Music: Cactus Quintet\nRed Cedar Chamber Music’s Directors and core ensemble\, violinist Miera Kim and cellist Carey Bostian\, will be joined by violinist Renee Santos\, violist Oliver Bostian\, and clarinetist Christine Bellomy to present Cactus Quintet. The program features the Mozart Clarinet Quintet\, Five Dances from Gumboots by David Bruce\, and a Gershwin medley arranged by Steve Shanley. \nMozart’s quintet was originally written for his friend Anton Stadler to play on one of the transitional instruments of the time\, the basset clarinet\, which had a larger range that the standard clarinets of the time. It is an exceptionally beautiful work that we have wanted to perform with Christine for years. \nDavid Bruce’s Gumboots dances were inspired by the gumboot dance of oppressed miners in South African gold mines. The miners weren’t allowed to speak and developed a form of communication using the slapping sounds that the boots created in the wet mine\, enabling them to communicate and even parody their captors. Gumboot dancing continues to be a popular form of street art in South Africa. While Bruce’s dances do have African musical influences\, he references dance rhythms from all over the world. \nSteve Shanley originally arranged our Gershwin Medley for clarinet trio in 2019. For this concert\, he has expanded it for clarinet quintet. The medley includes music from an American in Paris and Porgy and Bess and will bring the program to a joyful close. \nThis series of concerts is made possible by the Iowa Arts Council (which exists within the Iowa Economic Development Authority) and the National Endowment for the Arts\, the Greater Cedar Rapids Community Foundation (Program Support Grant Fund\, Linn County Fund\, Iva C. Robb Fund for Artistic Initiative\, a Liars Theater Legacy Fund\, and John A. and Elsie M. Nelson Fund)\, Transamerica Foundation\, the McIntyre Foundation\, the Grandon Foundation\, the Giacoletto Foundation\, the City of Marion\, and Farmers State Bank. Additional support comes from GreatAmerica Financial Services and Hills Bank. \nArtist Sponsorship generously provided by the Giacoletto Foundation. \nTickets: $30

SUMMARY:Christmas with C.S. Lewis
DESCRIPTION:Emery Entertainment presents\nChristmas with C.S. Lewis\nIn the early years of his young adult life C S Lewis believed the story of Christ’s birth was nothing more than feel-good myth. That all changed after a particular encounter with his great friend and fellow author\, J R R Tolkien. Although both men loved mythology in general\, Tolkien was convinced that the Jesus myth was the one true myth. That was the start of Lewis’ journey from Atheism to Christianity. From that point on Christmas\, for Lewis\, took on an entirely different meaning. \nHere we find him at his home near Oxford on Christmas Eve hosting a group of Americans who are Christmassing in England. They are about to experience an unforgettable assortment of Yuletide recollections which stimulates a whole range of emotions – curiosity\, laughter\, gladness and even some tears. Above all\, they will discover how that encounter with Tolkien forever changed his Christmas celebrations.

SUMMARY:Thrivent - An Irish Christmas
DESCRIPTION:Thrivent presents\nAn Irish Christmas with Rend Collective\nAbout Rend Collective:\nHailing from the rugged coast of Northern Ireland\, Rend Collective has always believed that worship should feel more like a celebration than a performance. From their earliest days gathering on beaches and in living rooms to now leading worship across the world\, the band has held tightly to one mission: to joyfully share the good news of Jesus through authentic\, Spirit-filled worship. \nSince the release of their debut Organic Family Hymnal\, Rend Collective has grown from a small worshipping community into a global voice\, amassing over 1 billion career streams\, and multiple gold and platinum selling singles\, including fan favorites like “My Lighthouse\,” “Counting Every Blessing\,” and “Build Your Kingdom Here.” Their catalog also includes the international worship anthem “Hallelujah Anyway\,” which has resonated deeply with churches around the world. \nThe group’s breakout single “Build Your Kingdom Here” became an early global anthem\, and their momentum carried into a historic run of chart-topping albums. The Art of Celebration debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard Christian Albums Chart\, followed by several additional No. 1 records including As Family We Go\, Good News\, and Campfire. Known for their energetic\, folk-infused worship\, Rend Collective has toured with major artists such as Chris Tomlin\, MercyMe\, Hillsong UNITED\, Kari Jobe\, and Lecrae\, all while preserving a sound rooted in joy\, community\, and honest storytelling. \nAcross albums like As Family We Go (2015)\, Campfire II (2016)\, Good News (2017)\, Choose to Worship (2020)\, Whosoever (2022)\, and FOLK! (2024)\, Rend Collective continues to evolve musically while staying true to the heart of their ministry: hope\, simplicity\, and the wide-open welcome of Jesus. \nToday\, the band is made up of Chris Llewellyn\, Stephen Mitchell\, Daniel Jones\, and Jonathan Chu—friends and worshippers who still believe that celebration is a holy act and that the joy of the Lord is worth shouting from the rooftops. \nTickets starting at $26.
