markets in Germany is held. The market,
which dates back to medieval times, has strict
rules that preserve its traditional flavor.
Patrons enjoy hot mulled wine in mugs as
they peruse the craftsmen’s stalls, contributing
to a convivial season’s spirit.
The choir also performed at Austria’s
famed Melk Abbey.
“It’s the most stunning place I’ve ever seen
in my life, really,” said King. “The acoustics
in there are incredible.”
For King, one of the highlights of the trip
was something distinct from the mighty pal-
aces and bustling markets — it was a per-
formance at a small, community church not
unlike her home church in Sisters.
The choir sang in the balcony at
Trinitatiskirche Pfarre Hutteldorf Church, then
came down to the floor to sing some more.
The pastor was so delighted to have them there
that he cut his sermon short so the choir could
enjoy a Christmas bazaar (replete with good-
ies) set up in the church basement.
This is the fourth choir trip for the Sisters
singers. They do a tour every couple of years,
raising funds for the trips in the off-year. King
says the trips are an outstanding opportunity
to build a team.
The Sisters community can get a taste of
the choir’s offerings from their most recent
adventure.
Each Sunday they will perform songs they
sang in Vienna, culminating in two Christmas
Eve services on December 24, at 4 p.m. and
9 p.m.
On Christmas Eve, the choir will sing
“Patapan”; “Good News, Amen!”; “O, Holy
Night”; “Alleluia”; and “Joy to the World/O
Come All Ye Faithful!” King says they will
also sing “Kling Glockchen Kling” in German.
