The Windham Philharmonic, under the direction of Hugh Keelan, presents Beethoven in December—with Holiday Treats. Beethoven’s Symphony No. 8 is the centerpiece of this delightful program; holiday treats include Victor Herbert’s Babes in Toyland, Leroy Anderson’s Sleigh Ride, and excerpts from Tchaikovsky’s The Nutcracker.
Keelan called the 8th symphony, in a recent message to orchestra musicians: “joyful, cryptic, enigmatic.”
The concert is Monday, December 9 at the Latchis Theatre, 7 p.m. and lasts about one hour. Admission is by donation; baked goods will be available for purchase.
