About the Event
Scottsdale Symphonic Orchestra’s six-part journey through the United States of America’s 250 years of spirit, struggle, and triumph turns festive with the third installment in the series, A Season of Light: Holiday Traditions and Togetherness. It’s that enchanting season once more, when the magic of the holidays is brought to life through the power of music! From beloved Christmas melodies that stir up memories of warm gatherings to jubilant musical celebrations of Hanukkah that illuminate the stage, A Season of Light promises a jolly ride for every member of the family.
Join in with Scottsdale Symphonic Orchestra for its annual holiday sing-along and BYOB (Bring Your Own Bells) as you become the star in the orchestra’s rendition of Leroy Anderson’s classic Sleigh Ride.
