Arkansas Symphony Orchestra ‘Holiday Concert’ Will Stream Live Dec. 13
There is no better way to get into the Christmas spirit than with beautiful Christmas Carols and Hymns. The Arkansas Symphony Orchestra will present Home for the Holidays on December 13th, 2020 at 3PM and it will be streamed live from the Robinson Center.
Concert information and the stream are available at www.ArkansasSymphony.org/home2020.
According to a press release, the ASO will perform holiday favorites like “O Holy Night” and “Sleigh Ride,” along with winter-themed orchestral works like “Winter” from Vivaldi’s The Four Seasons, featuring concertmaster Kiril Laskarov. Broadway singer and Little Rock native, Laura Leigh Turner (Mean Girls) is the featured vocal soloist on The First Noel and The Light in the Piazza.
ASO invites patrons to view the live-streamed performance from the comfort and safety of their own home.
