Uplifting music inspired by the Christmas holiday fills the concert halls in what has now become an annual favorite for hundreds in our community. Maybe it’s a lively Go, Tell it On the Mountain or The Wexford Carol that gets you in the holiday spirit – or maybe you need Franz Biebl’s Ave Maria or works by Rachmaninoff and Poulenc. As always, nobody greets the holidays like The Singers!
