Usher in this holiday season with a festive musical journey around the world. Under the direction of Artistic Director, Wes Lockfaw, the Easton Choral Arts Society will present a Christmas celebration you won’t want to miss! After boarding the “Polar Express,” and journeying to a “Winter Wonderland,” audience members will be taken on a whirlwind tour of the rich treasury of international holiday music. A sure highlight of the season, the concert will include many favorites such as “Carol of the Bells” by Leontovich and several different carols from around the globe.
Additionally, the choral society will be joined by a full orchestra, soprano Georgiann Gibson, and first time guest, Norma Bass, known throughout the Virginia Beach area for her nearly twenty-year run as “Ella Fitzgerald” with the Virginia Beach Legends. A particularly inspiring moment in the celebration will be the reading of Chris and Evie Stewart’s Christmas tale, “A Christmas Bell for Anya,” accompanied by Alfred Reed’s “Russian Christmas Music” and narrated by Josephine Batters. For those looking for a powerfully moving experience this Christmas season, don’t miss this compelling program, a listening feast for all ages! Refreshments will be served following each performance.
The performances will be held at the Easton High School Auditorium Saturday December 6 at 7:30 PM and Sunday December 7 at 4:00 PM. Tickets are $20 and $5 for students and are available on our website www.eastonchoralarts.org, by phone 410-200-0498 and from chorus members. You may also buy them at Crackerjacks store in Easton.
Easton Choral Arts Society is supported, in part, by the Maryland State Arts Council and the Talbot County Arts Council.
