Songs of Darkness and Light: A Family Holiday Concert

December 10, 2017 -

The MusicWorks Collective is joined by storyteller Valerie Tutson for a performance celebrating the winter solstice.  A reading of The Longest Night by Marion Dane Bauer will be accompanied by the music of Bach, Holst, Mozart, Vivaldi and more.

In Bauer’s award-winning children’s book, various woodland creatures attempt to bring back the sun on the longest night of the year. But it’s the chickadee’s gentle song that persuades the light to return, demonstrating the power of music.

Join us for this interactive hour-long musical celebration!

Reserve your tickets soon. Last year’s performance was a sold-out event.
