Susan Cooper's The Shortest Day looks across centuries of midwinter tradition: fires burning through the night, homes hung with evergreen, and people singing and dancing against the dark. At the heart of CCOC's Winter Concert is a staged telling of Cooper's poem, woven throughout the performance. Choral music brings its imagery to life: from snowfall and candlelight to celebration and the promise of returning light. CCOC's young artists perform works by Marie-Claire Saindon, Katerina Gimon, Benjamin Britten, Amy Beach, John Beckwith and more, accompanied by live musicians. The concert also features the world premiere of Soir d'hiver by CCOC pianist Stéphane Mayer. Both performances conclude with a cherished company tradition: Gordon Lightfoot's Song for a Winter's Night, arranged by Chris and Charissa Bagan. Join us for a winter gathering alive with story, song and the joyful sound of young voices.Sale Dates and Times:
