Candlelight: Christmas Carols on Strings

Candlelight concerts bring the magic of a live, multi-sensory musical experience to awe-inspiring locations like never seen...

College Street Congregational Church

Celebrate the magic of the season with Solaris Vocal Ensemble and the Skylark String Quartet, an acclaimed contemporary string ensemble joining as guest artists for this year’s Holiday Cheer concerts! At the heart of the program is Randol Alan Bass’s brilliant Feast of Carols—a dazzling centerpiece for strings, oboe, percussion, and piano. The concerts also feature two world premieres by Solaris’ Composer-in-Residence, Dr. James Stewart, including his stunning new arrangement of I Wonder as I Wander. The evening opens with Healy Willan’s jubilant Hodie, Christus Natus Est and unfolds into a luminous journey of sound—from John Trotta’s mystical setting of O Nata Lux and Toby Young’s radiant O Be Joyful to the ethereal beauty of Brent Pierce’s How Still He Rests, where oboe and wind chimes intertwine with voices. The celebration concludes with the rhythmic energy of the Nigerian carol Betelehemu and a sparkling, joy-filled rendition of Jingle Bells performed by Solaris’s own music educators. Join us for a concert filled with brilliance, warmth, and wonder—where ancient carols and new creations unite to bring Holiday Cheer to all.
SKYLARK is an innovative contemporary string ensemble based in northern Vermont. With decades of experience in the professional music community, Skylark's sound and repertoire challenge the boundaries between classical, folk and modern idioms, creating inspired original works for all audiences. Influenced by the Nordic, Celtic and American regions, Skylark’s music is melody-driven with unique energy, irresistible flair and undeniable beauty.
