Come celebrate the joy of the holiday season with Bainbridge Chorale, an Island tradition since 1971, as the chorale presents three concerts in December at Rolling Bay Presbyterian Church.

A family concert is 3:30 p.m. Saturday, Dec. 14 and will feature the Bainbridge Chorale Young Singers.

Other performances are 7:30 p.m. Saturday, Dec. 14 and 3 p.m. Sunday, Dec. 15.

Repertoire will include Antonio Vivaldi’s popular classic, “Gloria,” featuring strings and organ, and a selection of shorter pieces ranging from beautiful settings of familiar carols to songs of the winter season. The highlight of the concerts will be the world premiere of “Tides of Peace,” a stunningly beautiful work commissioned by the chorale and written by award-winning composer John Muehleisen.

Tickets range from $5 to $23.
