On December 15th and 16th, we celebrated the warm spirit of the season in a majestic setting. Jubilant, wondrous music was performed by chorus, organ, and brass. A favorite Washington, DC holiday tradition, this concert included beloved Christmas choral music, a new carol by composer Paul Moravec, and festive sing-alongs.
