Season of Light by Greater Newburgh Symphony Orchestra

The lovely thing about Holiday music is that however much we have performed over the years, there always seems to be something new to discover. Beginning with Samuel Coleridge-Taylor’s sumptuous fantasy on well-known melodies, we move to Corelli’s touching Christmas Eve serenade from 1690, and then on to Pachelbel’s beloved Canon (which is not technically Christmas music, but as I’m sure you’ll agree in this context, it ought to be!) From here we will hear an assortment of famous Christmas choral music as well as the beautiful addition of a new and haunting Hanukkah song called Eight Days of Light.
