THAT GINGERBREAD FEELING
This Christmas, let the Hickory Choral Society bring you “that gingerbread feeling”—the warmth and nostalgia we hold dear during the holidays. This year’s program takes you on a journey through the music of classic holiday movies, including Home Alone, The Snowman, A Charlie Brown Christmas, Lemon Drop Kid, A Christmas Story, The Polar Express, and more. For many, these familiar songs are woven into cherished traditions, stirring memories of joyful scenes, cozy gatherings, and heartfelt moments.
In Home Alone, John Williams’s music underscores Kevin’s longing for “that gingerbread feeling” as he watches a family celebrate together. In A Charlie Brown Christmas, music the singing of “Hark! The Herald Angels Sing” carries the characters through their search for the true meaning of the season. With over 100 voices and a full orchestra, we’ll recreate the sounds of these iconic scenes, immersing you in the spirit of the holiday season.
The program’s familiar selections make this concert especially welcoming for first-time concertgoers while still offering longtime choral fans plenty to enjoy. The mix of movie music and traditional holiday pieces will appeal to audiences of all ages, creating a celebration of the season that feels both fresh and warmly familiar. Gather your family and friends, and join the Hickory Choral Society as we share the music, memories, and joy of the season. We look forward to celebrating together!
