The concert
Christmas Classics brings the season’s most-loved melodies to life in a new way: a string quartet playing the carols and holiday standards everyone knows, surrounded by the warm glow of hundreds of candles. It is a gentle, festive way to start the holiday season, and it works just as well as a family outing as it does a quiet evening out.
