The One Tree Many Branches intimate and free performance series proudly presents "Let There Be".&nbsp;Following a stunning debut in 2023, this original Christmas Cantata returns for a 3rd year, this time featuring the voices of The William Ferris Chorale. With music by One Tree Many Branches artistic director Mischa Zupko, and lyrics by Ascension’s Pastor JoAnn Post, this cantata tells the story of Christmas from a unique and original perspective. “And suddenly, from nowhere, out of nothing, there was everything. Stars and moon. Light and dark. Time and seasons. Suddenly, there was love.”
