This concert features special music fit for the season such as the magical scenes incorporated from the music of Gioacchino Rossini and later transformed into La boutique fantasque (The Fantastic Toy Shop) by Ottorino Respighi. Elizabeth Croy, Melina Pyron and the Symphonic Choir join the orchestra presenting Antonio Vivaldi’s Gloria. Christmastime is always magical and no matter who you are, it is impossible not to get caught up in the spirit of the time as we conclude the performance with Handel’s Hallelujah Chorus.
