The hour-long concert will feature solo works by St. Patrick’s Music Director, Mark Kratz and organist, Doug Richardson. Other featured soloists are Jackie Senter, mezzo-soprano and Eleanor Albon, organ.  St. Patrick’s choir will delight with well-known pieces, such as Mary Did You Know and Sleigh Ride. The audience will get a chance to sing in the season as the concert ends with a carol sing-along for all. A reception will follow the concert in St. Patrick’s fellowship hall.

He has performed with such groups as the National Opera Orchestra as a soloist for the National Messiah Sing-Along at the renowned Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts in Washington, D.C.  He is currently an adjunct professor of voice at Sonoma State University and Santa Rosa Junior College.

Richardson studied with well-known organists such as Ladd Thomas and Richard Unfried. He holds a Bachelor of Arts degree in Vocal/Choral performance from California State University of Fullerton where he received his B.A. degree in Vocal/Choral performance, and graduate degrees in leadership and theology. He has served as organist at St. John's Episcopal in Petaluma where he continues to direct one of their two choral ensembles, and now as the principal organist/pianist for St. Patrick’s.
