The Chattanooga Symphony & Opera will present its annual holiday concert, "Home for the Holidays," on Saturday evening, Dec. 16, and Sunday afternoon, Dec. 17, in the Tivoli Theatre.

Andre Charitat, CSO marketing and communications manager, says "Home for the Holidays" is the CSO's biggest Pops concert, featuring festive holiday music performed by the symphony along with an audience sing-along and photos with Santa before the concert and during intermission.

"This year, the CSO will be joined by vocalist Neshawn Calloway, the CSO Chorus, the Center for Creative Arts Choir and the Metropolitan Bells, all conducted by CSO Music Director Kayoko Dan," says Chariot.

Calloway says she will sing a solo on two of Roland Carter's arrangements, "Go Tell It on the Mountain" and "Mary Had a Baby." She's also singing an arrangement of "Winter Wonderland." She is the director of the CCA choir that will be joining the CSO Chorus.

"Home for the Holidays is one of my favorite events of the year," said CSO Executive Director Samantha Teter. "The music we perform ranges from joyful to whimsical to sacred, a perfect mix of holiday favorites. It's a great event for entire families who want a way to celebrate the holidays together."
