Magical evenings will celebrate the holiday season, including “The Nutcracker” and “A Seraphic Fire Christmas.”
The Dennis C. Moss Cultural Arts Center is presenting holiday favorites for 2024. After a successful showing of A Charlie Brown Christmas Concert on Nov. 16, The Nutcracker takes to the stage on Saturday, Dec. 7 at 7 p.m. and Sunday, Dec. 8 at 3 p.m., followed by A Seraphic Fire Christmas on Sunday, Dec. 15 at 4 p.m. Tickets are available at MossCenter.org.
Dance fans will greatly appreciate performances of The Nutcracker as part of a timeless holiday tradition. In this Christmas classic, a young girl sets off on a dreamlike adventure to the enchanting Land of Sweets, guided by her Nutcracker Prince and the graceful Sugarplum Fairy. With Tchaikovsky’s exquisite score as the backdrop, gifted dancers and distinguished guest artists will bring this beloved annual performance to life on the Moss Center’s main stage.
Later in December, under the masterful direction of guest conductor Dr. Anthony Trecek-King, A Seraphic Fire Christmas will captivate audiences with its blend of modern and traditional a cappella performances set in a beautiful candlelit atmosphere. The program will feature works by modern-era composers like Benjamin Britten, along with beloved seasonal favorites like “O Come All Ye Faithful” and “Jesus Christ the Apple Tree.”
Seraphic Fire has earned an international reputation for its dynamic, cutting-edge, and historically informed programming that spans both secular and sacred literature. Dr. Anthony Trecek-King, an acclaimed choral conductor, scholar, and media personality with a career spanning more than 20 years, returns to lead this festive event. Dr. Trecek-King is known for his ability to create moving performances that exhibit a wide range of dynamics and depth of expression. He is currently a resident conductor (chorus) with the Handel and Haydn Society and is an active guest conductor, cultivating vocal and instrumental musicians at all levels.
Tickets for the Moss Center’s holiday performances may be purchased by visiting MossCenter.org, through the Moss Center Box Office in person, or by calling 786-573-5300.
