Cape Ann Symphony Holiday Pops

Description

Our Holiday Pops Concert returns, a beloved family favorite, with the Cape Ann Symphony Chorus under the joyful direction of Brittany Betts. Multiple performances, all filled with warmth and cheer.

Carols and classics. Leroy Anderson’s joyful Christmas Festival opens the celebration, alongside a gorgeous arrangement of the timeless Greensleeves. Tchaikovsky’s beloved Nutcracker Selections carry us through Clara’s enchanted world, with the spirited Trepak, the elegant Waltz of the Flowers, and the charming character dances.

The Festival of Lights, and a little Broadway. Custer’s grand Chanukah Festival in full orchestral splendor and Holcomb’s Festive Sounds of Hannukah, then John Higgins’ delightful Christmas on Broadway, with Sebesky’s playful Christmas Scherzo and Pinkzebra’s tender Winter Lullaby adding whimsy and reflection. The Chorus brings John Rutter’s exquisite What Sweeter Music and the jubilant Rejoice! How Great Our Joy.

And then, everyone sings. The concert closes with a sing-along that brings the whole audience together in the spirit of the season, the perfect way to celebrate the holidays with your community.
