Catch a virtual concert with the New Bedford Symphony Orchestra starting on Saturday, December 19, at 3:30 pm, thanks to the generous sponsorship of the Mattapoisett Library Trust. Ten families will have an opportunity to request a ticket for this experience, which will include the magnificent NBSO musicians performing your holiday favorites at festive locations around the South Coast, Music Director Yaniv Dinur and South Coast Chamber Artistic Director Janice Weber performing a piano piece for 4 hands, a show-stopping performance by the Showstoppers, the entire orchestra in a joyful performance of Sleigh Ride, and soprano Elena Shaddow, a rising star of stage and screen, singing holiday songs with Yaniv’s virtual accompaniment! The Orchestra might even throw in some ugly Christmas sweaters… More surprises to come, so stay tuned! The concert will be available for viewing starting on December 19 and will be available for 30 days. Families who register with the library will receive a link on December 19 for access via YouTube.com. One registration per family, please; duplicate registrations will be deleted.
