The City of
Brandon is thrilled to bring back the Christmas Concert (formerly
known as the Christmas Open House)! This celebration will take
place Sunday, December 12th,
2021 at the Western Manitoba Centennial Auditorium
(WMCA), located at 205 20th Street. Doors
open at 1:00 p.m., with the program to start at 1:30 p.m.
This free event offers a
special Christmas concert performance by the Brandon Community
Orchestra.
“We have moved the
concert from City Hall to our beautiful WMCA and are,
indeed, extremely fortunate to have such a magnificent venue available to
us in Brandon,” notes Mayor Rick Chrest. “This space will allow for us
to bring back our cherished Christmas concert in a safe manner.”
Come out to enjoy
a variety of familiar Christmas songs and classical pieces performed by the skilled
musicians of the Brandon Community Orchestra, whose members range in age
from pre-teen to seniors and hail from various communities
in Westman. Students from the Suzuki Strings program at Brandon
University will also give a special performance and will join
the orchestra for several numbers.
