Winter Recap: A Season of Wonder and Joy with Charlotte Choir School

Staff member, Hunter Rigsby

As the winter months brought chilly breezes and festive cheer, Charlotte Choir School has been bustling with activity, bringing joy, music, and community spirit to our city. Here’s a look back at some of our highlights this season, and a peek at what’s to come!

“Wonders of Winter” Christmas Concerts

On December 13 and 14, the sacred walls of St. Peter’s (our beloved church home) came alive with the magic of music during our annual Christmas concerts, Wonders of Winter. Charlotte locals and visitors alike—some even joining us for the first time—gathered to celebrate the magic of the season.

The evening was filled with moments to cherish: from the liveliness of the Town Choir’s performance of Zumba, Zumba, a Spanish carol adapted by Marie Stultz, to the festivity of Hark! The Herald Angels Sing, where the audience joyfully joined in song. The Christmas spirit was truly present as all voices united.

Annual Parent-Led Greenery Fundraiser

Nothing says “holidays” like the fresh scent of North Carolina greenery, and this year, our Annual Parent-Led Greenery Fundraiser was a resounding success! Thanks to the incredible support of our community, we reached our goal with over 275 orders of lush greenery.

A huge thank you to everyone who supported this initiative—whether you purchased greenery, donated, or helped us spread the word. We hope your homes were made a little brighter and merrier this holiday season!

Looking Ahead: Serenade Gala

The winter excitement doesn’t end just yet! We’re eagerly counting down to our Annual Serenade Gala on February 22nd—a night that combines reflection, celebration, and anticipation for what’s ahead. This elegant evening will feature:

+ A live auction to raise vital funds for next season

+ Opportunities to honor our supporters and welcome new friends into the Charlotte Choir School community

The Serenade Gala is truly a special event, where generosity and inspiration fill the room, leaving everyone with memories to treasure. Tickets are available now through January 31st—both individual tickets and tables of 8 or 10 can be purchased. Don’t miss your chance to join us for this unforgettable evening.
