The Choral Arts Collective

Star in the East: Family Matinee

It’s the most wonderful time of the year … Join Bel Canto Company for a family edition of our annual holiday concert, perfect for kids of all ages!

Enjoy the sounds of the season with the Triad’s premier choral ensemble, sing along with some of you favorite holiday tunes, and enjoy a sugar cookie or two.

 Depending on our backgrounds, the holidays may be filled with the sounds of many different musical styles.  The shape-note melody of Shawn Kirchner’s Brightest and Best with its joyous fiddle accompaniment may come to mind for those who grew up in or near the Appalachians. For others, the American Southwest origins of Conrad Susa’s Carols and Lullabies may be just the thing. For others, some of the classic standards of of the mid-20th century (think White Christmas) are the soundtrack to our December. Whatever musical style says “holiday spirit” to you, you’re likely to hear at least one representative at our festive annual holiday concert!
