Mde cA cA i For unto us a child is born ... from Han- del ' s MESSIAH rang out from the 1988-89 Cho- rale and the Symphonic Wind Ensemble along with other Christmas selections to praise the birth of Jesus. The Chorale, under the direction of David Luther, performed a wide variety of music for both Bryan and community churches. The main event of the spring semester was by far the spring break tour, which consisted of performances in various states. The Chamber singers, a sixteen-voice group chosen from the Chorale, also performed throughout the year at different locations. The Symphonic Wind Ensemble conducted a mini-tour, taking their music to churches and schools in the community. The Wind Ensemble strove to minister to their hearers as well as introduce them to instrumental music in the church. Two ministry teams, consisting of five mem- bers each, also travelled, presenting their mu- sic ministry to churches and schools all around. The teams, one directed by David Luther and the other by Chris Watkins, were designed to be a spiritual outreach and to attract people to Bryan. Surely a joyful noise was heard in 1988-89 from Bryan ' s music groups. Choral: Row 1: Dr. S.
