Taste of the Holidays is a classical-holiday variety show recorded last December at the Fitzgerald Theater. Two choirs — Magnum Chorum and The Singers, the Copper Street Brass, pianist Hiram Titus, the Veccione/Erdahl Duo, and the "house band" The Dolce Woodwind Quintet, all served up a wonderfully cheerful and serenely heartfelt program that kept the audience smiling all the way home. Join Steve Staruch at 6:00 p.m. on December 13 for this wonderful collection of music.
