The Susquehanna Chorale’s beloved Candlelight Christmas concert returns, pairing old holiday favorites and carol sing-alongs with music by brilliant contemporary composers. The first half centers on Respighi’s Laud to the Nativity — a hauntingly beautiful work featuring soprano, mezzo, and tenor soloists with a woodwind ensemble, blending plain-chant, pastoral melody, and rousing choruses. The second half turns to American music drawn from diverse traditions: driving spirituals and ethereal hymns, paired with timeless Christmas themes. The concert closes with the Chorale’s signature candlelit Silent Night.
