Members include singers Wayne Walters of Morris Plains, Rob Walters of Long Valley, Chip Wood of Basking Ridge, Al Perkins of Bensalem, Pennsylvania, John Collins of Raritan, and Bud Leppard of Morristown with collaborative pianist Ken Rapp from Convent Station. Holiday songs to be performed will include "See Amid the Winter's Snow," "Bidi Bom," "Homeward Bound," "Cradle Hymn" and "Various Themes on Fa-La-La."
The MCS Holiday Spectacular Concert concludes with a suite of carols and songs including "The Beautiful Sing;" "Tomorrow Shall be my Dancing Day;" "Eight Days of Light;" "Jingle All the Way" and "Behold that Star."
