Hawthorn Woods Holiday Concert

"Welcome Christmas!"

Corelli Christmas Concerto - strings and continuo

Mannheim Steamroller Celebration - full orchestra

The LCSO dazzles with music from the 16th century that is the inspiration for the well known and beloved Christmas music of "Fresh Aire - Mannheim Steamroller". The maestro is actually colleagues of the duo Jackson Berkey and Chip Davis who, together with their wives, were inspired to write creative modern day musical art using the grid of Baroque forms from Bach, Handel, and Corelli. These Christmas pieces are some of the most played and well known versions of carols on the planet! Come celebrate with us the genius of these amazing writers and hear, not only a Baroque sample that was their inspiration, but also a brief informance by Artistic Director Ron Arden and about their genesis.

This special concert event is made possible by the generous sponsorship of Klein Group, Muir Insurance Group and Watkins Legal Group. Come hear the festive holiday sounds of the Lake County Symphony Orchestra at their premiere in Hawthorn Woods at the Village Barn. Bring the family - celebrate the season! Full Service bar available to enhance this musical feast.
