This Community Sing brings together PSU's Briar, University and Community choirs, for a magical winter celebration. They invite you to rejoice in the warmth of fellowship as the choirs present pieces from brilliant composers like B. E. Boykin, Eric Whitacre, Don MacDonold, Sweelinck and more! Join in the celebration of the Holiday Season with the PSU choirs.

Like a winter garden in full bloom, Holiday Garden celebrates the many colors and traditions of the holiday season. The PSU Chamber Choir and Bells of the Cascades combine for an evening featuring choir, handbells, and organ in a program that highlights each ensemble individually before bringing them together in festive collaboration.

This highly diverse program includes cherished carols and selections from Handel's Messiah to contemporary holiday music, Disney music—and even the haunting sounds of Scandinavian gothic rock. Warm, joyful, contemplative, and surprising, Holiday Garden is a musical celebration of the season in all its variety.
