Dr. Julian Ackerley, Director ConcertDr. Julia n Ackerley, Director Saturday, December 12, 2020 4:00 p.m. Tucson Arizona Boys Chorus Hall Since 1980, Julian Ackerley has served as Director of the Tucson Arizona Boys Chorus. He has achieved acclaim as an accomplished conductor and administrator and has taken the choristers on performance tours spanning five continents and over 25 countries. Dr. Ackerley served as the National Boychoir Repertoire and Standards Chair for the American Choral Directors Association and is a specialist in working with boys emerging voices. He was also selected Choral Director of the Year by the ACDA Arizona Chapter. An experienced teacher, Ackerley has taught music at all levels from elementary to university students. Dr. Ackerley received his doctor of musical arts degree from the University of Arizona with emphasis in music education, vocal performance and choral conducting. He is a frequent guest conductor and clinician. Through the years his choirs have received numerous prestigious invitations to appear in regional, national and Julian Ackerley international events, conferences and festivals. Just recently the Director Chorus was featured a second consecutive year for the National Christmas Tree Lighting. Anne Grimes is delighted to work with the talented singers of TABC. She is a musician, music teacher, and music director in the Tucson area, currently teaching vocal and instrumental music at Santa Rita High School, serving as music director for Desert Springs PCA Church, and teaching voice at Pima College. Her experience in musical theater is vast: playing piano for 30 Gaslight Theater productions, music directing for Arts Express and CYT, and playing piano for many musical and theater groups. Anne's education is exclusively from UA, including a Bachelor’s degree in piano performance and music education, and a Master's and Doctorate (ABD) in Choral Conducting. Her plan is to fully complete the doctorate degree by the end of this year! She enjoyed playing piano for TABC on their 2018 China tour, and is looking forward to more tours. Anne and her husband Jonathan have four grown children of whom they are very proud: Sarah (and Anne Grimes Stephen) Lewis, Caleb, Seth, and Josiah Grimes. Accompanist Tucson Arizona Boys Chorus Mission The Tucson Arizona Boys Chorus is dedicated to providing boys in the community an enriched educational experience through the study and performance of choral music. The Chorus endeavors to impart musical, social and leadership skills that build self-esteem and have a sustaining impact on its members. Representing and serving the community as an artistic and cultural resource are fundamental to the Chorus mission. The Tucson Arizona Boys Chorus has successfully faced the challenges of 2020. As the longest continually operating independent boychoir in the United States, the Chorus is offering its programs in innovative and safe ways to fulfill its mission of music education and character development while contributing to the arts and culture of Tucson. The resiliency and adaptability of the Chorus has never been more apparent. After providing music education remotely in the spring, we found new ways to engage families and interact with choristers during the summer. This fall we have protocols in place to rehearse and perform safely together. Given the cancellation of traditional public performances at this time, the Chorus shifted its work to recordings both audio and video. The Chorus also received the distinct honor of being asked to perform for a second consecutive year at the lighting of the National Christmas Tree. We would like to thank our families and our friends in the community for maintaining their engagement with the Chorus and their support of its mission during this unusual time. Music has a positive impact on all but can be especially powerful in shaping the lives of children. Your trust in this work is critical to our success. Thank you for helping us provide Endless Opportunities for boys and young men both now and in the future.

  • The Twelve Days of Christmas a Testimony-Based Devotional by Dayna Schoonmaker
    The Twelve Days of Christmas A Testimony-based Devotional by Dayna Schoonmaker The Twelve Days of Christmas A Testimony-based Devotional by Dayna Schoonmaker For many of you, it may be old news that the twelve days of Christmas begin on ​ Christmas day rather than ending on the 25th. But, somehow, I grew up with the idea ​ that the twelve days of Christmas was part of the hype leading up to the arrival of Santa and the birth of Jesus. It’s not surprising since the song ‘The Twelve Days of Christmas’ plays alongside ‘Silent Night’ and ‘Have a Holly, Jolly Christmas’ throughout December. Still, it was somewhat unsettling to find I’d been doing Christmas ‘wrong’ for years. The problem with this misunderstanding is that Advent is the season that leads up to ​ ​ Christmas, while the twelve days of Christmas are meant to be celebrated beginning on the 25th. By pushing the twelve days of Christmas into the Advent season, we deny ourselves room to experience the longing that precedes Christmas, almost like skipping the pregnancy and going straight to the birth. And I get it. By December of each year, and this year in particular, I am ready for the holly, jolly part of the season to go ahead and get here. Once December 25th rolls around, I am usually ready to clean things up and move on. However, by denying the fullness of Advent with its tiny wonders amid the waiting, we also diminish the full revelation of Christmas, when Light bursts forth into the darkness and transforms everything.

  • Christmas Carol Lyrics
    1 COMMUNITY CHORUS PROJECT, KIDZU CHILDREN’S MUSEUM & UNIVERSITY PLACE PRESENT A HOLIDAY SING ALONG! Conducted by Caroline Miceli & Accompanied by Scott Schlesinger JINGLE BELLS A pair of hopalong boots and a pistol that shoots Is the wish of Barney and Ben; Refrain: Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way Dolls that will talk and will go for a walk Oh, what fun it is to ride in a one horse open sleigh Is the hope of Janice and Jen; Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way And Mom and Dad can hardly wait for school to start again. Oh, what fun it is to ride in a one horse open sleigh It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas ev'rywhere you go; Dashing through the snow in a one horse open sleigh There's a tree in the Grand Hotel, one in the park as well, Over fields we go, laughing all the way The sturdy kind that doesn't mind the snow. Bells on bob tail ring, making spirits bright. It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas; What fun it is to ride & sing a sleigh song tonight! (Refrain) Soon the bells will start, And the thing that will make them ring is the carol that you A day or two ago I thought I'd take a ride sing right within your heart And soon Miss Fanny Bright was seated by my side; The horse was lean and lank. Misfortune seemed his lot, Santa Claus is Coming to Town We ran into a drifted bank and there we got upsot.

Frosty the snowman is a fairy tale, they say, He was made of snow but the children Know how he came to life one day. There must have been some magic in that Old silk hat they found. For when they placed it on his head He began to dance around.

  • Dear Caroling Saints, As We Move Through Advent Toward Christmas
    Dear Caroling Saints, As we move through Advent toward Christmas Day, we will certainly hear many Christmas carols and songs on television and radio programs. In this age of satellite radio and streaming music with individualized playlists, one could listen to Christmas music round the clock. Of course, we have choices as to the nature of the Christmas music we listen to. Will it be country, jazz, traditional, rock, classical, or any of the many other genres available on the airways? Will we immerse ourselves in the rich hymnody of our faith, or will it be everything from Jingle Bells to Santa Baby? Well, you are in luck, because I have the answer to this question. Reviewing the Billboard Holiday 100 Chart (top radio airplay) for the week of December 20, 2014, I found evidence for the most played Christmas songs. They are as follows: 1. Mary Did You Know by Pentatonix 2. All I Want For Christmas Is You by Mariah Carey 3. Rockin’ Around The Christmas Tree by Brenda Lee 4. The Christmas Song by Nat King Cole 5. Last Christmas by Wham 6. Christmas Eve (Sarajevo 12/24) by Trans-Siberian Orchestra 7. Santa Tell Me by Ariana Grande 8. Feliz Navidad by Jose Feliciano 9. White Christmas by Bing Crosby 10. It’s The Most Wonderful Time of The Year by Andy Williams 11. Jingle Bell Rock by Bobby Helms 12. Rudolph The Red-Nosed Reindeer by Gene Autry 13. Do You Want To Build A Snowman? by Kristen Bell, Agatha Lee Monn & Katie Lopez 14.
