This beloved Maine holiday classic brings a delightful combination of nostalgic traditions and unexpected surprises. Experience perennial favorites like the “Hallelujah Chorus” from Handel’s Messiah and “Sleigh Ride” (performed in
a distinctly unique PSO fashion—and yes, pun intended for those in the know), new traditions like The Maine Christmas Song and specially selected brand-new selections heard for the first time each year.
RUN TIME: 60 Minutes
Fun Fact:
The PSO’s first performance of Magic of Christmas was narrated by Margaret Hamilton, best known for portraying The Wicked Witch of the West in the 1939 film, The Wizard of Oz. Fortunately this choice didn’t land the PSO on the naughty list that year!
