CHARLOTTE, N.C. — For over three decades Charlotte Choir School has filled the city with song during their annual Christmas Concerts, set to take place on December 8th and 9th in Uptown Charlotte.
Noel: A Christmas Concert is conducted by Artistic Director Elizabeth Lenti and performed by the school’s five choirs of children and youth. For two nights, the choirs will perform at St. Peter’s Episcopal Church in the heart of the Queen City.
“Having our choral program reside in Uptown is certainly something we take pride in and is one of the things we love to share this time of year. We get the chance to welcome patrons from all over through our doors at St. Peter’s while having the concerts be the prelude to what the holiday season means for so many,” Executive Director Davis A. Tapp shares.
Inspired by the tradition of caroling during Christmas time, the program is composed of classic pieces such as the Traditional French Carol Il est né, le divin Enfant as well as festive favorites Winter Wonderland and Jingle Bells.
“The Christmas Concerts are a staple of our program here, one that our choristers take much pride in performing for the public,” Tapp explains.
In the new year, the nonprofit will host its annual Serenade Gala on March 8, 2024, at The Terrace at Cedar Hill. This gala raises awareness and support for the ongoing mission to keep Charlotte Choir School accessible for all through a tuition-free model. Tickets will go on sale in late winter.
How to buy tickets to Noel: Tickets will be available to the public beginning Wednesday, Nov. 8 online at https://charlottechoirschool.org.
