Old Cutler Presbyterian Church www.ocpc.org hosts its 40th Annual Christmas Concert on Saturday, December 3rd with two show times at 4:00pm and 7:30pm.
Old Cutler Presbyterian Church invites the city of Miami to enjoy the sights and sounds of Christmas during its annual concert performed by musicians and vocalists from their church choir, orchestra, worship band, and youth choir.
“We invite every family in Miami to kickoff the Christmas Season with us. The concert is free and it’s our gift to the community,” says Senior Pastor Dr. Mike Campbell. “We’re blessed by the abundance of musical talent we have at our church and want to share it with the community as we celebrate the joy of Christmas.”
The Old Cutler Christmas concert is directed by three graduates from the University of Miami’s Music program.
U.M. graduates, Shawn Sutta and Jamie Sutta who are on staff at Old Cutler Presbyterian Church, lead the worship band and choir and plan on injecting the concert with soulful jazz, beautiful solos, and powerful vocal pieces.
Melissa Lesniak, the orchestra director at Old Cutler, along with a full orchestra that stretches across the church’s stage, will perform traditional orchestra pieces, classical Christmas hymns and sing-a-longs. Melissa received her PhD in Music Education from the University of Miami and previously served as orchestra conductor for the Greater Miami Youth Symphony.
Performances will include “Go Tell It On the Mountain”, “Angels We Have Heard on High”, “Silent Night”, “Hallelujah Chorus” and other Christmas favorites.
“We’re hoping this concert brings families together, both young and old,” says Shawn Sutta. “We are excited for this opportunity to get some of the city’s greatest musicians together and celebrate a day that is truly special. ”
