The School of Music’s annual Holiday gala is a seasonal celebration featuring music from many of our ensembles, faculty, and students! The festive music, elaborate decorations, and cozy atmosphere make for a memorable experience for the whole family! Check back in Fall 2023 for the announcement of this year’s theme and to purchase tickets!
Past Themes:
2022: Top 40 Holidays
2021: Holiday Gala at the Movies
This past year's theme was "Holiday Gala at the Movies!" The performance included songs from "Elf," "Christmas Inn," and "Home Alone." Pictured here is Vox Animae, our treble vocal ensemble, performing "Making Christmas" from The Nightmare before Christmas!
The Holiday Gala is a campus-wide collaboration with various departments, including faculty and student-led performances. Theatre professors Caroline and Tim Good performed a hilarious version of “’Twas the Night before Christmas” as part of last year’s gala!
The Holiday Gala always provides fun for everyone! Music students Haley Burgh ’22 (left) and Emma Merkamp ’23 (right) choreographed and performed a tap dance to “Hot Chocolate” from The Polar Express as part of their gala pre-show entertainment!
