Beautiful as always! This is a tradition now.

Loved it!

Unique

The performance was amazing. I do have a critique about letting in late comers. The information about the show stated a strict policy for being late. It stated there would be no admittance 5 min prior to the show. The show did not start promptly at 4:30, which was fine. It gave people running late time to arrive. Even with the delayed start, a lot of people arrived extremely late and permitted to come in. A few people 30 minutes late. It very was annoying and distracting.

Beautiful Christmas music pieces! Loved hearing a bit of history about each piece. One suggestion - The Little Drummer Boy!
