Christmas with Music classes

Louis de Geer konsert & kongress

The angels Frieda and Stulle are very excited: they are supposed to organize Santa's internal Christmas party. He especially wants to hear lots of Christmas songs from all over the world. And then his wife gets in touch and wants a walk-in gingerbread house and other things for the party. The two angels get to work. At least when it comes to the Christmas songs, they get active support from the Munich Radio Orchestra and the audience: sing along!

Tomorrow, Children, There Will Be Something

Studio 1 in the Funkhaus Munich

With her warm and expressive voice, Joan Faulkner, who comes from Indiana, USA, is considered one of the most important European swing, soul and jazz interpreters. The best conditions for an atmospheric evening with the Munich Radio Orchestra and many Christmas classics that we all know - from White Christmas to Mariah Carey's All I Want for Christmas Is You to the orchestral freestyle with Rudolph, the Red-Nosed Reindeer and Anderson's Christmas Festival ...

Christmas Classics

Bayerische Theaterakademie August Everding

EPSG:4326

2023/2024 December Concert

Albert Hall Conference Centre

British baritone Rodney Earl Clarke captured every heart when he starred in the Halle’s Christmas Concert a couple of years ago. We couldn’t wait to bring him back, so here he is with a sack full of treats for the festive period, including operatic and Hollywood favourites, as well as some chestnut-roasting seasonal classics. Our master of ceremonies is genial conductor Stephen Bell, who’ll be taking us through a roll call of Christmas hits from Tchaikovsky and Rimsky-Korsakov and heartwarming movie music from Home Alone to Frozen. And as it’s Christmas you can enjoy some good old-fashioned audience participation singing along with White Christmas and trying to keep up with the reindeer in Leroy Anderson’s Sleigh Ride.

The Hallé Christmas Concert

Royal Concert Hall Nottingham

You’ll hear sparkling works by Czech and French female composers, audience favorites like Coleridge-Taylor’s Christmas Overture and Leroy Anderson’s Sleigh Ride, plus a few surprises sure to make your spirits bright. And don’t miss the annual audience sing-along, hosted by CEO & President Sidney P. Jackson, complete with glowing luminaria lighting our hall in harmony.

Holidays of Hope

Mandel Hall

North Central College

The wonderful Wisconsin-born soprano Emily Birsan -- now one of Chicago's indispensable classical artists -- returns following her exquisite "St. Cecilia Mass"  for another glorious French confection: Francis Poulenc's fabulous setting of the GLORIA, written in 1960 for the Boston Symphony....and once again, our LSO Assistant Conductor James Wilson will assemble a magnificent symphonic chorus for the occasion! A garland of classic American Holiday favorites graces the evening's first half, culminating in another brilliant return: La Crosse's own piano prodigy Andre Previn Peck, in Prokofiev's glittering First Concerto. John Finnegan's Christmas Sing-Along caps off what will be the perfect Holiday celebration.

Holiday Glories

Viterbo University

Devised and performed by celebrated composer Nigel Hess, The Food of Love is a glittering tribute in words and music to William Shakespeare.

A potpourri of reminiscences, memorable reviews, scandalous backstage anecdotes and some of the Bard’s finest lines, performed by actors Lesley Nicol (Downton Abbey) and Richard Teverson (The Crown), paired with a glorious selection of music by Craig Armstrong (Romeo & Juliet), William Walton, Michael Kamen, Cole Porter and Stephen Warbeck (Shakespeare in Love) as well as Nigel’s own witty and delightful songs written for the Royal Shakespeare Company.
