2002 Las Posadas Concert in McAllen, Texas |
 |
|
In 2002, for the first time, the Parish's "Choir Ensemble sang tradition Eastern European orthodox nativity Carols at the annual early December "Las Posadas" Festival in McAllen, Texas. "Las Posadas" means "The Inns" and is a traditional play done during the Christmas season in many Spanish-speaking cultures. Most in the audience have never heard the lovely Orthodox carols before. Our ensemble was well-received and its performance was aired on a local television program. During the performance, the ensemble sang the "Troparion of the Nativity" in both English and in Spanish. |
