Warde Alumnus to Lead Sixth Annual Christmas Carol Community Sing-Along in Bridgeport

The sixth annual Christmas Carol Community Sing-Along will take place this coming Sunday, December 16, at 3:00 p.m., at Saint Margaret’s Shrine, 2539 Park Avenue in Bridgeport.

The inclement weather venue will be either the Embassy Towers, 2625 Park Avenue, or another next-door venue which will be indicated by a sign visible to passing cars. A free reception follows.

Volunteer singers and a brass quartet will be led by Music Director Tony Procaccini of Saint Emery Church, Fairfield. Children are especially welcome, since a “special visitor” from the North Pole is expected.

Those interested in singing should contact Tony as soon as possible at 718-873-7421 or by email at aprocaccini@juno.com. A brief rehearsal will take place at 2 p.m. on the concert date. The photo below is from last year's concert.


Procaccini, pictured above in the suit jacket singing, developed the music program for the sing-along at its 2007 inception, and conducted all sing-alongs through 2010. Last year, however, he took a back seat to a talented young percussionist and composer, Brian Ente of Bridgeport.
