'Tis the Season for Sharing Mechanical Music
By Gregory Filardo

What better way to reach out to many than at Christmas time with
mechanical music.  Our Christmas Eve 10 P.M. service saw everyone
gather for hot cocoa or coffee and homemade cookies as we gathered
around the player piano in Fellowship Hall and sang along with the
piano rolls.

The Christmas service had the prelude performed by the Bijou Orchestrone
playing the Christmas hymns -- indeed, it fills even a large hall with
music!  Many realized that something old is something better and voyaged
back to Christmas past.
