Just in case there are any here who don't read the "cities" board:

Mark your calendars now for the fifth annual performances of "A Gaelic Christmas," featuring international recording artist Mary Mc Laughlin and her Cór Ainglí Irish-language choir. This year we'll be offering four shows, including two afternoon matinées:

MATINEE SHOWS:

Sunday, December 5, 4:00 p.m., at St. Andrew Presbyterian Church, 9850 Monroe Av., Aptos

Sunday, December 12, 4:00 p.m., at Advent Lutheran Church, 16870 Murphy Av., Morgan Hill

Saturday, December 18, 7:00 p.m., at Trinity Episcopal Cathedral, 81 North Second St., Downtown San Jose

Concerts feature original choral arrangements of Christmas song in Irish Gaelic, including both traditional Irish carols and well-known European and American carols that have been translated into Irish, performed by Mary and Cór Ainglí. Also featured are the well-known world music vocal ensemble Zambra (http://www.zambra.org/ Evening shows only), as well as Steve Coulter on harp, Owen Meehan on flute and whistle, Bruce Abraham on guitar and percussion and Shiloh Hellman on piano.
