Mark Your Calendar for Piedmont’s 37th Annual Lessons and Carols

DEMOREST, GA — Piedmont University invites you to its adored holiday event, Lessons and Carols, as it enters its 37th year on Dec. 5 and 6.

Lessons and Carols is one of the region’s most beloved events, a true Piedmont University tradition, a special time when the community gathers to welcome the holiday season. We are privileged and honored to share this incredible music event for our Piedmont family and community year after year.

This year’s Lessons and Carols, directed by Bobby Ivey, Piedmont University Assistant Professor and Director of Choirs, will feature the Piedmont Chorale, the Sewell Organ, and the Cherokee Bluff High School Chorus, directed by Cherokee Bluff Choral Director Jenna Coon.

Lessons and Carols features a selection of readings, carols, and choir anthems to begin the holiday season. Some of the highlights of this year’s program will be See Amid the Winter’s Snow, by Dan Forrest, and Gloria Fanfare, by Jeffery Ames. 

The audience is invited to sing along with familiar carols accompanied by the organ and brass quintet. The singing of Silent Night during the candlelight section of the service is always a memorable and moving experience for everyone.

Lessons and Carols will be performed on Fri., Dec. 5, and Sat., Dec. 6, at 7:30 P.M. at the Piedmont University Chapel.

Tickets are available for presale at Event Ticketing | Piedmont University and at the box office on the day of the event.
