It's Beginning To Sound A Lot Like December

Johns Creek Symphony Orchestra presents two Christmas concerts this Holiday season

The Johns Creek Symphony Orchestra is well known in the North Georgia and Johns Creek community for its spirited and festive holiday performances. This December, the orchestra will return to the stage with vigor and passion as the renowned musicians of Johns Creek Symphony Orchestra perform not one, but two Christmas-themed concerts. A Kids’ Christmas and Christmas Pops are two concert events that the Johns Creek community looks forward to during the holiday season, and the festivities are nearly here. Excited musicians from the orchestra as well as featured performers from around Johns Creek have been practicing hard to bring the community an unforgettable Christmas concert experience.

Johns Creek Symphony Orchestra is eager to present A Kids’ Christmas and Christmas Pops as part of its 2022-2023 season. Both concerts will be held on December 17 at Johns Creek United Methodist Church, 11180 Medlock Bridge Road. A Kids’ Christmas will begin at 2:30 p.m. and Christmas Pops will begin at 7:30 p.m.

A Kids’ Christmas is a sensory friendly performance that welcomes the non-traditional concertgoer to enjoy classical music in a way that is engaging, fun, and pays tribute to the holiday season. Given the title, A Kids’ Christmas is a concert that primarily caters to children; however, the concert truly is for everyone. This performance is extra special because it is adapted to be free from “traditional theater rules.” The concert is suitable for children with Autism as well as individuals with Alzheimer’s, dementia, and other special needs. The Johns Creek Symphony Orchestra has designed this concert to be adaptable for the audience member, and the orchestra invites families to bring headphones and other sensory items that may help the concert be more enjoyable for sensitive individuals.

Christmas Pops is perhaps one of the most treasured holiday traditions in the city of Johns Creek. This classic Christmas concert will feature the local folk group, Banks & Shane, as well as the Johns Creek Chorale. The Johns Creek Symphony Orchestra musicians are excited to perform alongside some of the community’s most notable singers, and together, they will put their own spin on the songs of the season to present an elegant and heartwarming performance to the Johns Creek community. Christmas Pops is a concert that is perfect for anyone who wants to delight in the traditional tunes of the holiday season. The concert is sure to bring the true spirit of Christmas to all music lovers.
