Celebrate the season with the Dorothy Gerber Strings Program’s festive holiday concert! The evening begins with performances by the DGSP's beginner, intermediate, and junior orchestras, featuring talented students from Harbor Springs, Petoskey, and home school programs. Enjoy holiday classics like Jingle Bells and the playful Grandma Got Run Over by a Reindeer.

The second half of the program showcases the Dorothy Gerber Youth Orchestra (DGYO) with a stirring lineup, including Christmas Eve/Sarajevo by the Trans-Siberian Orchestra, Handel’s iconic Hallelujah Chorus (audience participation encouraged!), and other seasonal favorites.

Special guests include tenor Matthew Kacergis and Bob Brill, who will narrate The Night Before Christmas. Join us for this festive celebration of music, community, and holiday cheer!
