Join us for this family tradition, featuring Holiday music from around the world and—of course—the city's best opportunity for carol sing-alongs!
This Christmas triptych—featuring three musical "scenes"—will begin in Leipzig, 1723. Inspired by the 300th anniversary of Bach's arrival at the Thomaskirche, we will experience Bach's music, as well as the music of two candidates offered the job before him: Georg Telemann and Christoph Graupner.
Our next scene takes us to the Harlem Renaissance, with music by Florence Price and William Grant Still, featuring Bright Star, a yet-unpublished Christmas carol by the amazing Margaret Bonds.
We end with music from the present day, including works by Eriks Esenvalds and John Tavener, and we will bring all of the fanfare to close out the show!
