Easton Choral Arts is "Home For the Holidays" in Easton on 07 December 2023
Thursday, December 7, 2023, 1930 - 2100
The audience will travel across America through a festive journey of musical styles, from Southern gospel and Midwestern folk to Northeastern crooners and West Coast Hollywood flare. Even the islands of Hawaii and Puerto Rico will share their Christmas spirit. You may even hear guitar and ukulele!

The program's world premiere, the song of "Santa Lucia", composed by ECAS Artistic Director, Alexis Ward, represents the Festival of Lights celebration brought to the Delaware shore from Scandinavia. The festivities began in late November and continued through December.

Songs of Kwanzaa include "Umoja" and "Kuumba" and will be accompanied by percussion, including rain stick.

"Eight Days of Light" will be sung partly in Hebrew and will be accompanied by piano and string quintet.

Old favorites will include a powerful "O Come All Ye Faithful", "I'll Be Home for Christmas", "Home for the Holidays", "Sleigh Ride", a rollicking spiritual arrangement of "Go Tell it on the Mountain," a jazzy "We're Gonna Decorate the Christmas Tree", and "Love's Pure Light" - a gorgeous new arrangement of "Silent Night" and the closer, "Hallelujah Chorus" from Handel's Messiah and more.

The doors will open 35 minutes before each concert.

This concert is supported in part by the Maryland State Arts Council, Talbot Arts and the Mid-Shore Community Foundation
