The Magic of the Holidays
Our traditional Thanksgiving weekend kick-off to the Holiday Season will be filled with musical cheer once again at the Cape Ann Symphony Pops concert. First off will be the performance of Mozart’s Magic Flute Overture. According to our conductor Yoichi, this is one of Mozart’s greatest and most loved overtures, filled with a tremendous amount of movement and energy. Next is Humperdink’s Hansel & Gretel Prelude, followed by Pierpont’s Tintinabulations and Bach’s Little Suite. The first half of the program will conclude with the ever popular Anderson’s Christmas Festival. Following the intermission, the Cape Ann Symphony Singers will join the orchestra. Directed by Wendy Betts, they now total nearly 70 members. They will join the Symphony with a selection of fine holiday choral pieces including a beautiful Hebrew arrangement by Nurit Hirsch titled Bashana Haba’na. The singers will conclude with Handel’s always uplifting Hallelujah Chorus from The Messiah. The concert will end with the traditional Christmas singalong. Come one, come all!
