Join us for two wonderful concerts this month, our Winter Choral Concert and OrchestraChorusPalooza.  We hope you will come and enjoy some music this holiday season!

Winter Choral Concert – “Revel, My Friends”
Tuesday, December 9, 2014 – 7:00 pm
Elley-Long Music Center at St. Michael’s College
$12/adults; $7/students. To purchase tickets, call 86-FLYNN or visit www.flynntix.org.

“Revel, My Friends” features music of friendship and personal devotion including Gaelic and seafaring songs, songs of peace, and choral highlights of Gluck’s opera, Orfeo. 2014 marks an anniversary year of Gluck’s birth. The opera is testimony to the ultimate “triumph of love” retelling the fable with a more favorable, celebratory finale.
