The Choral Society rings in the season with music from the Americas, north and south, with the centerpiece of Conrad Susa's masterful arrangements of Spanish carols popular in the American Southwest. The program will also include our traditional carol sing-alongs, Handel's Hallelujah Chorus conducted by one of our three annual auction winners, and our closing Silent Night by candlelight.

Saturday and Sunday nights are SOLD OUT, so Friday night in Yardley is your last chance to hear BCCS this Christmas. While you are in the area, catch the Christmas lights at Shady Brook Farm!
