I want to make you aware of a series of Christmas musical performances that you and those in our parishes may enjoy. Several groups have combined this year to offer something called Georgia Home for the Holidays. You will see more information below on this series, which is meant to fill some of the void in a year when the usual musical performances will not be offered.
Georgia’s Home for the Holidays is a collaborative musical venture involving hundreds of singers and instrumentalists from the Metropolitan Atlanta area and beyond. Organized by leaders of the Georgia Symphony Orchestra and Chorus, Atlanta Master Chorale, and The Michael O’Neal Singers, this project is a 35-day series of seasonal musical videos to be presented ‘virtually’ through YouTube, Facebook and other social media between Thanksgiving and New Year’s Day.
Each 5-7-minute video features one choral or orchestral group from the area, sharing artistic content related to expressions of the winter holiday season. Episodes will premiere daily, then be available for viewing anytime thereafter. Episodes are available on the Georgia Symphony Orchestra’s Facebook and YouTube pages, and at holidays.georgiasymphony.org where viewers may also register to have the videos delivered to them directly via email.
