(BEAVER FALLS, Pa) — The best of The Genevans’ 2019 Christmas Concerts will be aired on WORD-FM, 101.5 FM / www.wordfm.com at 8 p.m. Saturday, Dec. 21 and on WBVP 99.3 FM/1230 AM and WMBA 1460 AM at 1 p.m. and at 8 p.m. on Tuesday, Dec. 24 and Wednesday, Dec. 25. The a capella, student choir of Geneva College sang of the good news of Christ’s birth in “Joy!,” which was recorded at First Presbyterian Church of Beaver Falls on Dec. 6-7 and will be broadcast for audiences in the greater Pittsburgh area.
This is the Genevans’ 82nd straight concert season. The theme “Joy!” is a further refinement of the choir’s spring theme, “Rejoice in Glory.” Director Dr. David K. Smith explains simply, “One of the main themes of Christmas is joy — so there is a lot of joyful Christmas music!”
The Genevans choir exists to glorify God and minister to people through the gift of music. Founded in 1938, the choir continues a rich heritage of choral singing dating from the early years of the college over a century and a half ago. The mission of The Genevans is to engage audiences while glorifying God and ministering with important spiritual truth.
