Coconut Grove Music Series Presents: Christmas Concert Chorus and Orchestra

Coconut Grove Music Series Presents: The St. Stephen's Annual Christmas Concert with Festival Chorus and Orchestra

You are cordially invited to our annual Christmas Concert at St. Stephen's Episcopal Church in Coconut Grove. We'd be thrilled to have you with us to celebrate the holiday season through the power of music!

We've brought together a fantastic lineup of soloists, chorus, and orchestra, complemented by the ethereal sounds of the harp and the grandeur of our historic pipe organ. This evening's performance will be a testament to the enduring power of music to touch the heart and uplift the spirit.

Many of the songs you'll hear have graced the halls of the great cathedrals of Europe, celebrating the arrival of Christmas with exquisite renditions of classic carols and sacred masterpieces, including excerpts from George Friderich Handel's beloved Messiah.

This holiday season, we invite you to embark on a journey of musical enchantment, reflection, and celebration—right here in the heart of our vibrant Coconut Grove.

Please join us!
