FREE and open to the public, the 90-minute live concert presented by the City of Orlando Department of Families, Parks and Recreation will feature traditional holiday songs like O Christmas Tree, The First Noel and Hanukkah, O Hanukkah mashed up with classic rock tunes and modern hits like Born to Run, Heroes and Sweet Dreams, delivering a fun-filled, energetic and highly unique holiday show unlike anything seen and heard before and simulcast all around Lake Eola.
This year, special guest performers are Pianist Carol Stein, Edgewater High School Orchestra and Howard Middle School Orchestra. Santa and Mrs. Claus will return for meet-and-greets and family photos. Concert goers can also bring a donation to support Violectric Education Programs (VEP), Violectric’s 501(c)(3)not-for-profit music education division. Thru VEP, Violectric performs workshops throughout the U.S., Asia and beyond, including master classes and performances combining Violectric with student string groups.
“It’s our favorite time of the year, and we couldn’t be happier to announce the return of our special holiday tradition, Violectric Holiday Show,” says Jones. “Last year was a huge milestone year for us celebrating the 10th annual show and receiving two proclamations from both Orlando Mayor Buddy Dyer and Orange County Mayor Jerry Demings proclaiming ‘Violectric Holiday Show 10th Anniversary Day’ in the City of Orlando. We look forward to carrying that same momentum and excitement over to this year’s show and continuing to share our gift of electrifying string music to many Central Florida and visiting families this holiday season.”
