Singing in the Holidays

Singing in the Holidays is the beloved holiday spectacular that brings the entire Summerville community together for a night of dazzling tunes, joyous choral celebrations, and unforgettable orchestral sparkle. Join the spirited Singers of Summerville and the talented Summerville High School Choirs as they transform iconic seasonal classics into a festive program full of heartwarming nostalgia and local pride. The show opens with Jim Stephenson’s “Charleston Christmas,” a punchy, jazz‑infused celebration that pays tribute to the Charleston dance craze and electrifies the Lowcountry’s holiday spirit. Next, Tim Berens takes the stage with his electrifying arrangement of “A Winter Miracle,” fusing Vivaldi’s “Winter” from The Four Seasons with treasured Hanukkah melodies for a daring, resonant experience. The evening continues with whispered winks to Tin Pan Alley’s golden age through beloved standards such as “The Christmas Song” and “White Christmas,” plus generous, heartfelt renditions: Barlow Bradford’s warm “Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas,” Roy Ringwald’s lush orchestration of “White Christmas,” and the ever‑sparkling orchestral exuberance of Leroy Anderson. Throughout the program, the choirs rise to dazzling heights with special selections like Kim André Arnesen’s tender “Cradle Hymn,” Gwyneth Walker’s exuberant “Rejoice!,” an energetic medley from the film score of the Polar Express by Alan Silvestri, and the annual audience sing‑along that invites everyone to join in the fun.
