Festival of Carols
December 16, 2020 @ 8:00 pm - 9:00 pm
Free
Enjoy TMC’s annual joyous celebration of music for the season.
During this season where we are looking to find joy during a difficult time with the pandemic, the TMC is putting together a program that brings together virtual performances of new works, sing-along favourites from last year, and some Christmas stories and memories.
New works you’ll discover in this concert include Hannah Kendall’s Nativity, and the TMC Choral Composition Competition winner, A Hymn on the Nativity by Alastair Boyd.
Plan to add your voice to the sing-along of popular carols from last year’s Festival of Carols with the Toronto Symphony Youth Orchestra, – with on-screen lyrics to make it easy for all to join in.
