The Fredericton Choral Society will perform Spring Songs & Sweets on Saturday, May 10, 2025, at 7pm at Christ Church (Parish) Church in Fredericton. The concert, directed by Greg Geldart, features choral works by German composers, including Heinrich Schütz’s Psalm 100, Mendelssohn’s Psalm 42, and Brahms’ Love Song Waltzes. 

The highlight will be Bach’s Cantata 4: Christ Lay in Death’s Bonds. Pianists Catherine Macdonald and Ruth Nieboer, the Sarabande Strings, Fran Robinson (oboe), and Alice Boyd (organ) will accompany the choir, with soprano Olivia LaPointe singing Mendelssohn’s solo. After the performance, a reception with sweet treats will follow.
