Get your tickets today!

Tickets are now available for Clarks Summit University’s Christmas Concert. The musical celebration of Christ’s birth will be held on Friday, December 15 at 7 p.m. and Saturday, December 16 at 3 and 7 p.m. Tickets are $8.

Variety of Genres

The Department of Music will present a wide selection of music and genres through CSU choirs, vocal soloists and instrumentalists. The audience will be invited to sing favorite Christmas carols.

The concert will be conducted by Adam Schwamb and Dr. David Harris and will feature sacred and secular choral works, jazz instrumental music, solo instrumental and vocal music. Highlights include soloists, compositions written by students and congregational singing.

Historic Setting

The concert will be performed in the historic Murphy Memorial Library, a beautiful setting for celebrating Christ’s birth. “The Christmas concert is special because it showcases the choir and chambers singers’ hard work—or even more so, the directors’ hard work—and gives individual performers a chance to share their talents as well,” shares student and choir member Elizabeth Abbott. “Having the concert in the library makes it even more special because of the acoustics and atmosphere.” Abbott is a sophomore studying Writing-Communications with a minor in Music. The number she is most excited to perform at the concert is called “There is Faint Music,” which she describes as “a beautiful piece that will sound even greater in the library.”

Celebrate Christ’s Birth

Schwamb says audiences will love the beautiful music, the chance to sing Christmas carols together and to celebrate Christ’s birth. He adds, “It’s a wonderful way to celebrate the Christmas season through uplifting and beautiful music.”

Haley Seboe is a Communications-Writing major from Tunkhannock, Pennsylvania.
