St. Louis’ longest-running choral society, The Bach Society of Saint Louis, will kick off the holiday season at Leach Theatre with a concert this November. 

The performance will begin at 2 p.m. Saturday, Nov. 15, in Leach Theatre in Castleman Hall, located on the Missouri S&T campus at the corner of 10th and Main streets in Rolla. The concert will feature a mix of classical compositions and seasonal favorites, including selections from Franz Schubert’s Mass in G, John Rutter’s “Magnificat,” “Joy to the World” and “Carol of the Bells.”
