It's a Holiday Treat for all seasonal and holiday music in many styles. The Carson City Symphony presents the 30th annual Holiday Treat concert on Sunday, December 15, 4:00 p.m., at the Bob Boldrick Theater in the Carson City Community Center, 851 E. William Street.
The Symphony will be joined on the program by the Carson City Symphony Chorus, and Norma Conway's Victorian Dancers. Pre-concert entertainment begins at 3:00 p.m. in the lobby.
Treat your whole family: tickets are $15 general admission; $12 for seniors, students, and Symphony Association members; and free for children age 16 and under. Tickets are available in advance at Play Your Own Music in the Carson Mall, online at CCSymphony.com, by mail, or at the door.
The Carson City Symphony, conducted by Music Director/Conductor David Bugli, will perform several works, including "Russian Christmas Music" by Alfred Reed, and the lighthearted "Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow!" by Jule Styne.
The Carson City Symphony Chorus under the direction of choral conductor Michael Langham, will perform "Sure on this Shining Night" by Morton Lauridsen, "Lux Aurumque" by Eric Whitacre," the Austrian carol "Still, still, still," and the traditional "The Twelve Days of Christmas."
The Victorian Dancers will twirl and slide to Emile Waldteufel's "Skater's Waltz." Performers and audience will join together for the traditional Holiday Treat finale, "A Christmas Singalong."
