CLEVELAND — The world-renowned Cleveland Orchestra's Holiday Show is back this season.
'Oh come all ye' faithful' opens the show, as guest conductor Brett Mitchell leads the musicians and vocalists.
“To be able to have folks come in over the course of a dozen concerts like we’re doing over the next two weeks and to spend some of the holiday season with us, that’s really what this is about," said Mitchell
The Cleveland Orchestra Chorus, directed by Lisa Wong, is returning with the orchestra for its first in-person performance since 2020.
Mitchell told Spectrum News there is something different for everyone to enjoy.
There will also be guest vocalist, Capathia Jenkins, and guest choruses joining the stage on different days from such as Cleveland State University, the College of Wooster and Cleveland's Youth Chorus Chamber Ensemble.
Mitchel said the music is a reminder of how people from all different backgrounds can come together and celebrate being one.
“We all consequently grow up with this music. and so it takes everybody back to being a kid again and that for me is what the holidays are all about.”
