The words of the chorus tell the story of Christmas while Charlotte Reinart Cantata and tableaux--WA Solo voices from the chorus sang the parts of Joseph and Mary, the shepherds, and the innkeeper and his wife. The modern phrasing of the lyrics was evident in a variety of lines. The dynamic Bethlehem was in con- fusion: t ents, tents, tentsmpitched on the ground. . .people milling e v e r y w h e r e to find a place to stay, brought a fresh approach to the traditional Christmas story. The cantata gracefully moves on to the melodious song of Joseph putting bundles of hay into the crib...A lullaby soothes the Christ Child and finally the Cantata ends in the finale of Christmas Joy. and Rogene Siert, who play the roles of Joseph and Mary, show the Christ Child to the innkeeper and his wife, played by Rosemary Eimers and Pat Johnson. Night of Wonder Alone on a hillside dotted with trees, a shepherd, played by Audrey Cruntorad, wonders at a star. And at once an angel lights the night to tell the miracle of birth. 7TfIP!'Q l IOS
