Hall on the UNM campus except where indicated):
- Christmas concert including Respighi's Nativity and the
Pinckham Christmas Cantata, December 7/8/9.

glorious acoustic space I've ever sung in---the Spencer Theatre in Ruidoso,
NM. Tentative repertoire includes Britten's Hymn to St. Cecilia,
Gretchaninoff's Holy Radiant Night, some of the Schubert songs
for male chorus, and a world premiere of a work by our own Alf Houkom.
