Holiday Pops!

Stony Brook University

A must-see holiday show that is both technically impressive and wildly entertaining! Don’t miss this high-energy, powerhouse vocalist in a holiday, cabaret-style performance that blends classics with new, witty takes. 

Beloved Broadway star Jessica Vosk returns to Staller in SLEIGH, her dazzling new holiday concert featuring humor, heart, and jaw-dropping vocals. Featuring songs from her first full-length holiday album of the same name, Vosk reimagines both classic carols and modern hits with a touch of Broadway sparkle. Highlights include her playful cover of Ariana Grande’s “Santa Tell Me”, which Grande herself praised: “After being a fan of hers for so long, I’m humbled and honored that she is covering my song (I’m actually screaming).”

Jessica Vosk: SLEIGH

Acclaimed Stony Brook Music faculty members, Jennifer Frautschi, violin, and Christina Dahl, piano, reunite for a program of rarities: three early-twentieth-century voices, from Respighi’s lush lyricism and Elgar’s nostalgic warmth to the virtuosity and intensity of Schoenberg’s rhapsodic Phantasy.
